Assembly Instructions
Step 1. Using Diagram I as a guide, sew background 2" x 2" square to green print 2" x 2" square. Make 2 units with background square on right side; make 2 units with background square on left side.

Step 2. Referring to Diagram II, sew background 4 1/4" quarter-square triangle to adjacent sides of 2 5/8" x 2 5/8" square to make pieced-triangle. Sew floral 3 7/8" half-square triangles to short sides of pieced-triangle to make large flying geese unit. Make 4 total.

Step 3. Sew red print 2 3/8" half-square triangles to 4 1/4" quarter-square triangle to make small flying geese unit (Diagram III). Make 4 total.

Step 4. Using Diagram IV as a guide, sew 2" x 2" green print squares to small flying geese units to make top and bottom rows. Sew flying geese units to opposite sides of 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" red print square to make middle row. Sew rows together. Make 1.
Step 5. Using Diagram V as a guide for unit placement, sew units together to make rows. Sew rows together to make Royalty Variation Block.
