Making strip sets is the easiest way to make multiple
block especially when they are all the same color.
For this project we will be making a variety of different
size strip sets, here are the simple steps.
1. Sew strips together along length of strip in order
outlined in each step. Example: light-red-light
2. Press seams toward the dark, being careful not to
stretch and distort the strip set.
3. Sub-cut multiple units by cutting from narrow end
of each strip set at indicated width.

Using light|dark|light units and dark|light|dark units

make 68 nine patches with dark corners.
