Yes! Here's the layout:

* Row 1 = 4Patch, Star, 4Patch, Star

* Row 2 = Star, 4Patch, Star, 4Patch

* Row 3 = 4Patch, Star, 4Patch, Star

* Row 4 = Star, 4Patch, Star, 4Patch

* Row 5 = 4Patch, Star, 4Patch, Star

You will have 5 rows of 4 blocks each! I made it easy for everyone by identifying a Star block and a 4P block so when you put these together, it won't be so much of a puzzle. Joining 10 blocks with 10 other blocks in an alternating fashion makes it easy. You'll know if you have a Star block, you'll need a 4P block next! duh....

You know, it's so true, that we can get so turned around and have things sewn upside down and inside out if we aren't careful so making these great BIG blocks simplifies things and holds down the 'confusing' factor!! lol.lol.

Also, at the top of the thread it says the mini-tut is at 3 different posts so you may want to refer to those. I may have given some tips there. Also, you will need to refer to the diagram I drew for the positioning of the 4P's. The order starts off with L, D, D, L. When you sew your pairs of darks/lights together, it will be placed as light, dark, dark, light for the first row. Then your 2nd row will be just the opposite: dark, light, light and dark.

On my quilt, I got things turned around (oh, how easy it is) and one block is out of order. In the 4th row, the 2nd block is a 4P block and the first two rows are reverse of what they should be. I took the block apart and thought I had corrected it only to find out it was still wrong......hahah.....lol...so be careful with turning yours pairs the right way when they are on the design wall. No one will notice if it's wrong.....it'll just add more beauty to the quilt!

Well, I sure hope this answers lots of ? and if you can think of anything else, shoot it out there and we'll see if we can't tackle this baby!! Happy scrappy quilting to you and we can't wait to see it! n2
