I'm NOW ready to strip-piece a row of TWO squares, then I strip piece adding the THIRD Sq

Here is the back side.... I've press out the three square unit, alternate seams to left and right ...

NEXT ---   I press again to make a completed 9-paths.   ALL MY CENTER BLOCKS ARE GOLD!

I'm going to take all sixteen completed, pressed 9-patch block, pressed...

I will square each one -to an exact - idenically measured SQUARE... all same size!!!

VERY IMPORTANT.....

to make four new units

Next Step....
