Oops, sorry @Lowena, I’ve just been out posting them.
Yes I knew what Imi wanted, but she also posted photographs above and explained that they should look like them, but in different colours.

She wants-

One block made out of 2 triangles :half black ,half  ‘fire’ colour, i.e.red, orange.

One other block made out of 2 triangles : half one ‘fire’ fabric, half a different ‘fire’ fabric. Each block should measure 3.5” square.

If you’ve ever made half square triangle blocks before , they should take you only a few minutes to make.

Hope this helps.

So, here is, what I just made. I am sewing in metric units, so I made them a little bit bigger and Iminei can cut then to the size, which she needs.

I hope, I understood it now correctly  ;)

PS: Sorry, I have no PLAIN black.

@Iminei  I've put two sets in the post - I just cut one black square and three different fire colours, cut them all in half diagonally and sewed together - but I didn't trim, you can do that to get the exact size needed.  If you get too many I won't be upset if they are ditched.

@Iminei , I think I mentioned I’d send 2, as the way I make HST always makes 2 of each. You should receive them soon.
