Label each cut group with the fabric label/letter and size of square or strips to avoid using wrong fabric.

Note:  Instructions based on 44" WOF, 42" once selvages removed.

*  If you use Thangles for Half-Square triangles - do not subcut these strips . . . just wait for the instructions so you will know what strips go together, as well as how many and what size you will need.
