Yep, it's pretty simple. I started out with a 6 inch square for the center, the first round is 1.5 inches, then 2 inches for the second round, the third round is 1.25 inches and the last is 2.25 inches, all of these are cut measurements. I pressed the rounds out from the center on half of the blocks and in towards the center on the other half so that the seams would butt
when I sewed them back together. I think it helps, but those seams really fight being pressed towards the center. then the blocks are cut into quarters and reassembled. Lots of cutting and sewing but nothing difficult. it was fun to see how the different fabric combinations came out on each step one block, and even more fun when I reassembled the mix-up blocks.

I love them, by the way!
