Hi everyone! Welcome to month 6, where we’ll be assembling block 1. This is a fun one! You’ll need your dark pink, medium pink, light pink, and white scraps from previous months. Cut out your squares and triangles according to the pattern instructions.

For the square-in-a-square blocks, you’ll first apply two triangles to the sides of an inner square, and then press to one side:
