You have treated the "windows" differently to the tut and I like your's much more. Hers appears to have solid "centres" (Australian spelling).

So if you can direct me to a tutorial or give me any tips, I'd really appreciate it!
I think that in the tute, she just hadn't finished all the middles. I believe her intention is to fill them them all in, as is traditional in CW.
I tried one today and LOVED it!! I want to rush out and get the white to get started!!

In the tute she stated that she actually wanted every other window to be a solid white, so I assume she will go back and just close the seams of the four corners by stitching them down.
Thanks for posting the tute, I have read many of them and this is the first one that made sense to me at the point where the colored fabric was added and the edging was pulled over it and sewn down. I may have to give this a whirl at some point. It's a good way to use up some scraps or for a person who says "I want a purple quilt" for example, you could use a variety of purple fabrics in it and it would have a great finish with all the white to set off the various purples. My little sister may get a purple quilt yet, LOL!
