Capitol U and lowercase u
Using the dimensions shown on the ruler (adding seam allowances), cut a center rectangle, then sew on a piece from a 2" strip. Sew a piece from your 2" wide strip on each side. Add snowball corners on lower left and right corners.

That wasn’t hard, was it?
I took this class from Roberta Horton while in Houston (a peak experience). We couldn’t use rulers, but could use our rotary cutters; however, scissors were preferred. In addition, we were also to purposely invert one part of the block, a la Gee’s Bend quilts, which Horton called “utility quilts.’ Another tricky bit was that we had to use the bit of fabric — a bit of ugly fabric — that she brought for each of us. Wonky was the operative word, although that word wasn’t really in use much at that time.
