I found this in my EQ5 and I want very much to make it. However, I cannot find instructions for what sizes to cut the fabric. In the EQ5, it is called Double Windmill.
I have tried looking online and have not had any success. Does anyone have a link, or maybe just instructions to tell what sizes to cut the pieces?
Thanks so much.

I do not know how to paper piece. Have never thought of it.

In EQ5:
Block Worktable
File
Print
Foundation Pattern
There are 3 tabs. Numbering/Sections/Options
In Options you can set the size of the block.
The Sections & Numbering info should already be set to a correct default so you shouldn't have to play around with them unless you want to.
You can preview how it will look until you get it right before you print it out.
This block is pieced with FOUR 5-piece foundations around the smaller center block.
That's done with partial seam sewing.
Once that whole center is complete, then you put the corner HST's on.
It's a very, very cool block. One of those "how she'd to that?" kinda blocks.
However, the coloring default from EQ for this block is ....vomit inducing. Blech.

Back to the block worktable.
File
Rotary Cutting
You'll have the option to set the block size.
If you don't like Rotary Cutting, then choose Templates.
Again, you'll have the option to set the block size.
This block is in the Block Library. Came right up in a search.
