OH OH OH...I came up with a new way to do a disappearing 4 patch...instead of cutting on either side of the seam lines, put the block on point and cut on either side of the points...really cool patterns develop that I have never seen before and sooooooooo easy. Try it with 8 charm squares just to see if you like the way it looks. I'm not at home (where my blocks reside) or I would post a picture for you! If you can't figure it out, I'll make a couple of blocks tomorrow and post pictures if you'd like.
