Drunkard's Wife Quilt-Along Week 3: Mint Julep

For Week 4 of the Drunkard's Wife QAL, we'll be making the Ohio Star Mint Julep block.

Center Square

• A - (1) 4.5" x 4.5"

Background Fabric

• B - (4) - 4.5" x 4.5"
• C - (2) - 5.5" x 5.5"

Colored Fabric #1

• D - (2) - 5.5" x 5.5"

Follow this tutorial to make (4) quarter square triangles with your C and D pieces. Each C + D pair will yield (2) quarter square triangles. Trim them to 4.5" square. 

What we're supposed to do is lay these (9) 4.5" squares out as illustrated and sew them all together.

Instead, make some mistakes. Rotate a quarter square triangle 90 degrees. Chew on it a little bit. Whatever you do, make sure it cause restaurant employees to offer you the children's menu because you're obviously...special.

When you're done, your block should measure 12.5" square.
