I haven't gotten that far yet. The blocks aren't even sewn together . In the photo they are just laid out on my bed.

Love your quilt - just thought the half square triangles might be a simpler plan, for me, at least. Tk you for sharing this quilt - I think it presents such wonderful, creative ideas.

Hi Callen,
Yes you could do it with HST. As you said it will give it a different look. As long as you keep to the measurements.

Thank-you for the block drawing it will provide inspiration for a baby quilt I have been asked to make.

I will post the photo of the blocks again then my drawings. I have put it here as well as at the end of the original post.

I'm not quite clear on your 2nd block. What is the measurement of the red square, as the corners are cut off? Sorry for being so dense, but I just couldn't figure that out. Your quilt is beautiful.

As I see it, the finished blocks are 12", thus making a 48" square quilt? Thanks for sharing your directions. It's amazing how the block was created. Repetition makes it gorgeous. Would it look good as a 96" square quilt?

Hi Eva,
You start with a piece of red 7.5 x 5.5 then add the black corners.

Hi Sharon,
I don't see why it couldn't be 96" square. I only have a double bed(think you say twin). The photo is only the blocks laid out on my bed. I need to makes some borders.
