I did the double middle because I didn't want the quilt to be square. the tutorial on the board just tells you how to make the blocks but not the placement. I put the pieces on my design wall until I came up with something I liked. I want to do this pattern again and I think I have a different placement figured out so that it won't just be a square but it won't be a double middle either. if I ever get around to the project I certainly will post it
