The border squares set on point take care of the edges. Beautiful quilt. I rarely use a pattern for a quilt as I enjoy dissecting the whole into manageable elements.
CitrusCountyQuilter: This is exactly how I first saw the pattern,(I also see a four patch) but after seeing how others would put it together by blocks, I realized that doing it by rows would be quite a hassle trying to get the colors in the right place. Even so, I like to do things in rows, and by laying it all out, it could be done that way.
