3 Fabric (ackground) - Cut ten strips 6-1/2 x WOF (Width of Fabric). Cutting Instructions Fabrics C, E, F & J Fabrics D, G, H, I, K, L & M - Cut six strips 1-1/2 x WOF. - Cut three strips 1-1/2 x WOF. Step 1: Make Strip Sets Piecing Instructions Refer to the diagram below to group your strips and sew them, long edges together, into sets of six strips each. You will make three of each color set. For colors that are labeled 2x you will sew two of the same strip side by side. When sewing long strips together, it is best to lay your strips flat on a table, right sides together, and pin along the edge. This will help you to sew the strips straight, so that they will not stretch and warp. Set 1 Set 2 Set 3 Set 4 Set 5 Set 6 Once your strip sets are sewn, Press the seam allowances open or to the side and lightly starch as you press. You will be cutting them on the bias, and this will help to keep them from stretching and make them easier to cut. page 3

4 Step 2: Cut Strip Sets You will be cutting the strip sets into 45 triangles. There are two ways you can do this: - The easiest way is to use a Right Triangle Ruler to cut 6-1/2 high triangles (the ruler may also be called a 90 triangle, 45 triangle, right triangle, half square triangle...). - If you do not own a triangle ruler, then you can use a quilter s acrylic ruler and cut 45 angles. To cut triangles with a ruler: - Lay your strip set out with the lightest color at the top. - Find the 45 angle on your ruler and line it up with one of the strip set seams. - Make a 45 cut that begins at the bottom left of strip set. - Next, rotate your ruler and make another 45 cut, beginning at the top end of the prior cut. Note: the bottom edge of your triangle will be 13 wide and the sides will be 9- long. - Continue to make 45 cuts until you have three triangles which have the lightest color at the top point and the darkest color at the bottom (set the extra triangles aside for your next project!). 6-1/ Repeat with each strip set until you have 8 triangles of each color set. A note on strip sets: If you do not sew your strip sets with an accurate seam allowance, they may be less than 6-1/2 high. That is ok. Just cut your triangles at 45 angles, as in Step 2, and then cut your background triangles in Step 3 to match. page 4

5 Step 3: Cut ackground Triangles - Cut Fabric strips into triangles the same way you cut the strip sets in Step 1. You will yield 5 triangles per strip set Cut a total of 48 triangles and then cut 4 in half down the center. Step 4: Assemble locks Make Half locks: - Sew two of the Fabric half triangles to a Set 5 triangle to make a half block. - Repeat with one more Set 5 triangle and two Set 6 triangles to make a total of four half blocks. Set 5 Make Whole locks: - Sew a Fabric triangle to each of the color triangles, then sew two matching sets together diagonally to make a block. - Make twenty-two blocks. page 5
