Block 6 - Tiny Piecing Sampler

I'm not going to lie, I did question my sanity a bit as I made this block. Sixteen 1" Scrappy Triangles? What was I thinking?!? :) But it was worth it!

For extra flair, try using four of the same Scrappy Triangles in the middle. They will make a fun secondary pattern.
(Here are the links for all the other blocks in the Tiny Piecing Sampler and the Shop where you can purchase the Scrappy Triangle foundations.)
