Oh well...

Anita, if you like the look of the Yellow Brick Road, but you find the instructions confusing (which I did, but I was "changing too many things"), you might google Two Slice Layer Cake quilt pattern. That should take you to Missouri Quilt Company, where they have a tutorial that makes a quick quilt that looks very much like the YBR. It starts with a Layer Cake (42 ten inch squares), but I have made it just with fabric and it works that way too. In fact, let me see if I can find a picture.

Okay, I found two pictures. The first is with a layer cake, and the second is with five fabrics. Perhaps this pattern might be one that you might like, if you are after a YBR look.
