Sew in rows of 6 squares
Sew 2 squares together, then sew these two to another unit of 2 squares until there are they are 6 squares long.
Continue unit the 6 square rows are 12 rows wide.

Count 6 squares in from the end and cut diagonally,paying attention that it goes diagonally across each square's junction point , to the other side's corner.
Repeat from 6 counted squares in from opposite end/ same side to other opposite corner, creating a large 12 squares x 6 squares from the center. = 2 large triangles (6 squares x 6 squares) & 1 larger triangle (center).

Sew the 2 smaller triangles together matching the whole squares side (not the diagonally cut sides) which becomes 12 squares x 6 squares.

Sew the two 12 squares x 6 squares triangles together matching the whole square sides.

Make the two center squares, that are 6 squares in from corners and cut in half diagonally, the same color as the opposite corner squares that are cut diagonally to result in finished quilt corners be the same fabric color and pattern.
