Thanks for adding the pic ... I was just too quick on the draw!

Lovely, how you have done the inner diamonds!

And I thought I couldn't see the kaleidoscope part of it, just because it was pale and the detail didn't show! :)

It sounds like you're describing a "4 patch posie". It's pretty easy.

Here is a 4 patch posey I did. I do love this pattern. You can actually make the squares any size you want. I usually see how wide my fabric is and then decide on the most effecient size.
