These are quilts that I have done over the last five years. As a student/teacher, I haven't really had much time to work on my quilts.

sharonb I honestly have no idea what the name of the square pattern is. My roomie's mother told me how to do it, so I did. I just added outward to make it bigger. To do the inner square, just sew strips to get a square, whatever size you want... place two squares face to face, one horizontal, one vertical, stitch around the edges, and then cut diagonally and you get the angled stripes you see in the photo.

I think it's great that you name your quilts. You can be proud of yourself: Pretty AND finished!
