When I checked the picture I do not think it is the same. As Jenny explains in her video, the corners are cut off, and the corners in red pepper are sharp.

I made these over a year ago and taught it at an quilting stitch in...can't remember where I learnt about this from but it was someone else's idea on a quilt site....had no video but instructions so it was a mad experience at first til I had that "bulb" moment. Lol
Try it! It's fun....
