Cutting instructions are for one block = Make 6 blocks
From two different prints, cut: 1 square, 4" x 4"
cut each square diagonally twice. Two tringles
from each square will not be needed.
Layout block on work surface. Join triangles along their
short edge. Sew the triangle pairs together, matching seams
at intersections to make one hourglass unit. Trim the unit

Make 6 Hourglass blocks. 
Join the six Hourglass blocks into a horizontal row,
measuring 3" x 15-1/2" long, including seam allowances.
