After you make the components, lay them out like this.  Begin by assembling the components as shown in the red square.  Assemble all four sections then sew them together with the rectangles between the sections.  It really isn't hard and it will make sense to you once you get going.

You can also change the components around a bit to alter the look of the block.  This is Barbara's block from class last month.
