I was clear as mud, it seems. The pics I posted are quilt mock-up from EQ. There are 16 blocks here,all the same except for the rotation. I love the movement it creates. The pattern's not hard, it's just a block separated on a 1:2:3:4 ratio then each sub-block is bisected on the diagonal. I saw a similar pattern and tweaked/hacked it so there's that. Here's the block done in 10" to show the ratio easily. Mine will be 15" so dimensions are 1.5":3":4.5":6", then a 2" border all the way around the quilt, bringing it to 64" square.

I like the first one, now that you posted this, it doesn't look so difficult anymore. Not that i'm brave enough to do all those triangles like you will. but it looks very nice. A lot of measurements for sure!

I like the first version. It's more dynamic. Great design!
