OK ladies,
So, the Friendship Scrap Block posed a challenge for some of us yesterday. Life is not always perfect and we found that the assembly sequence was flawed for this block.

Try working from the inside out as follows:

Create the four different 3 1/2 inch center squares.
Assemble the four 3 1/2 inch center half square pieces to form a 6 1/2 inch square block.
Sew two of the small triangles together to form a larger triangle stitching along the 3 1/2 inch sides. The new large triangle should measure 6 1/2 inches along the base and about 4 3/4 inches on the other sides. ( see illustration below)
Next, sew the new large triangles to the center square along the 6 1/2 inch side to form a 9 1/4 inch square.
Finally, you can add the large triangles on each corner to form the 12 1/2 inch block.
