Hopes and Wishes
A Mystery Quilt in Patchwork
Part 1

 Making the Unit 5's

You will need 8 [12] light blue A's and 2 [3] dark blue B's. For each construction, align 2 light blue A's on opposite corners of a dark blue B, right sides together. Draw a line on the wrong side of the A's from corner to corner and then sew 1/4" out on both sides of the line.

Cut on the marked line, flip the A's open and press.


Align, mark and sew another light blue A on the remaining corner of each half of B; cut apart and press. Repeat to complete the remaining constructions.

Make 6 [12] unit 5's. (The sofa size will have 2 unit 5's leftover.) Label this group and set it aside for later

Got it so far? Move on to Part Two to make more units and the section A's for Hopes & Wishes.
