keep in mind that this is for one block only, so you'll have to multiply by the number of blocks in your project

I would find a good way to make the Boston Blocks. (Not Rhonda's way, sorry.) We draw lines from corner to corner both ways on the background square; lay RST onto colored fabric, and sew 1/4 in. to the left side of the line just to the center. At the center switch to the right side of the line and continue to the corner. Now do the line in the other direction the same way. Cut on the drawn line and you have four quarter square triangles with the light and dark on the same sides. Add these to a triangle and you have a Boston Block.

Thank you for sharing the PDF of the block's cutting directions. I see that some of the measurements include 3/16ths. What is your recommendation for accurately cutting this measurement if the rotary ruler is only marked off in 1/8th increments?
