This first wesite you posted (sew wonderful) has a great tutorial. I have 4 yds of floral brown fabric I bought last summer to make my ex-mother-in-law a quilt, that my kids were going to give her for a christmas gift. However, in September, she passed away unexpectedly. I still want to make a quilt using that fabric, and give it to my ex-brother-in-law, whom did so much for his mom. I want to explain to him that this was the fabric I had bought to make her a quilt and now used it to make a "memory quilt" in honor of his mom. I had also already bought some light gold fabric to go with this brown floral fabric so I am going to use this disappearing 4-patch pattern to make a throw size quilt for him as a "memory quilt" in honor of his mom. I have been looking since last September for a pattern to use for this and this will be the perfect one. Thanks.
