March do.Good Stitches blocks

For the March block for the Emerge Circle of do.Good Stitches, Betsy asked us to play with half-rectangle triangles in a black and lime green color scheme. She was inspired by the patriotic quilt in this episode of Sewing With Nancy.
For these blocks, you piece 1" white strips into a black rectangle measuring 8 x 10", then cut it on the diagonal and pair it with a lime green print (again, 8 x 10" rectangle cut on the diagonal). The only tricky thing is to make sure all of the rectangles are cut on the same diagonal (in this case, from the upper right corner to the lower left corner). These went together fast and were really quite fun.
