that the strip will be long enough for the next block to be stitched to it. If too short, just substitute another strip from any fabric from the team for the remaining blocks to be stitched on to.

      10 Continue to build up the block, referring to the masking tape square to check that sides 1 and 2 always have team A fabrics against them, while sides 3 and 4 have team B fabrics against them. Remember to use strips from each team twice to make the L shape.

      11 When four rounds of strips have been joined to all four blocks, check with Fig 2 that the design is correct. Press each block from the front, pressing all the seams out from the centre towards the edges of the block.

      13 Now make more blocks in the same arrangement of strips as in Fig 2. Thirty blocks are needed for the Syncopation quilt. Nine blocks are needed for the Off-Beat Batik quilt. Do not worry too much if the final round of strips varies in width because of the trimming – this won't be noticeable once the blocks are cut up and tilted.

      Making the triangular template

      14 On a piece of graph paper draw a horizontal line 11in (27.9cm) long. At the left end draw a vertical line upwards 3½in (8.9cm). Join these two lines from a to b (Fig 16) to complete the triangle.

      15 Cut out the triangle template carefully. Use masking tape to stick the template to the underside of a rotary ruler with right side upwards and the sloping edge a-b level with one long edge of the ruler (Fig 17)

      Cutting the blocks

      16 Lay a Log Cabin block right side up on a cutting mat. Place the ruler over the block so that the template triangle is positioned exactly over one corner of the block. Cut along the edge of the ruler through the fabric block (Fig 18).

      17 Repeat this on the opposite corner of the block. Finally, repeat this cut on the remaining two corners (Fig 19).

      Only the first pair of opposite triangles of fabric cut from the block are completely triangular in shape. The other two have the last Vain (1.2cm) of the sharp point (b) missing and a small piece from the other corner (a) – see Fig 20.

      18 Exchange corner 1 with its opposite corner 2 and exchange corner 3 with corner 4 (Fig 21).

      19 Pin and stitch corner 1 to the centre block with a ¼in (6mm) seam offset along the seamline at the wide-angled end and with an overhang at the sharp-angled end (Fig 22).
