I am working on a design for some beatiful applique patterns I have and I saw something here on the board that I want to try and incorporate. This post shows the woven ribbon pillow by Tothenci and I just love it.

What I am thinking of is doing the 4 center squares in this woven pattern using the cream batik background and white cotton.

I've been thinking of how to make the squares. How do I get the green triangles sewn around the edges? I could do it in small prairie points like the white ones on the outside but, that is a lot of bulk right at that seam.

Layout the weave and then sew green onto each end?

Make the finished woven block size 2" smaller and then sew a 1" pieced strip around the edges with the green triangles with the white and cream background placed where it meets that color weave strip?

Is that just too much to put on a quilt in the first place?
:-D
