Match one A2 and one F2 right sides together and stitch on each Using the HSTs you made in the last two steps. Stitch together 15 HSTs into pairs with the fabrics aligned as shown at left. Label these 1A. Repeat with remaining HSTs to make 15 blocks with fabric aligned as shown at left. Label 1B. 2
