some kinda magic square?
 
1 Attachment(s)
Several years ago - and maybe since but I've been gone - we were having fun with a kind of magic square like this picture, where you take 5 squares, 4 alike and 1 different for the middle;
And you end up with a 4-patch with diamond in center, but only sewing maybe 2 seams?
There was a tutorial on here too.
Anyone can gimmee a clue?
Thanks so much!

Missouri Star quilt company has a tutorial on the magic square you can check there.

You can find youtube tutorials under The 10 Minute block. There are also several quilts on QB using the block. There is also the 5 minute block tutorial as well as another that turns back the bias edges for a different look.

Suzanne Mac Neil also has a 5 minute tute on youtube.com videos. I have a book by her, not positive on her last name.

10 minute block is a lot of fun to make.

Looks like a 10 minute block to me! I think there are only 3 seams in it and it comes out like that. You might want to look at this You Tube from Suzanne McNeill. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbTHlGGKMPM This is how I learned to do it. :)
