NEW SWAP! Disappearing Four Patch quilt blocks!

I'm such a visual person, so since I've never made this particular block before I looked at wannaquilter's & jaba's beautiful blocks to see if I switched them correctly. The placement on their blocks is not the same, so which is right? Or does it even matter? Thanks for setting me straight!
Does anyone have any concerns about this? Please let me know.
I hope I answered your question - - -

Take a look at dottie dodge's link at http://www.northwestquilters.org/bom.html. If you are a visual person, the blocks shown for months December and June might help you to picture how to place the colors. But they have 2 prints with only one background. The original tutorial given for this swap at http://sewwonderful.blogspot.com/201...o-9-patch.html didn't address the layout for 4 prints... so Jane provided the example in post #2. It's understandable that wannaquilter and jaba each made the block differently-- it's a little confusing! :-) Jane's example shows both sets of diagonal squares being treated the same way. ...It's even confusing to me to explain it! Hopes something helped here. :-p

Deenatoo, Yes, all 4 squares in the block are different. You don't need to read all the posts-- where you see the page numbers, upper right of your screen, click on 'Last' to get to the beginning of the thread to see the posts with instructions and and a pictured example. Jane's a wonderful host, making a great swap for us. I'm doing the 30's block swap right now, but I plan to sign up for the batik swap that's coming up next month. It's a great little block that is sooo versatile! It's cute in all the examples I've seen. I hope you join too! :-)

Thanks for both of your answers. The first block I made I screwed up....I just made it with one bright and one black/white. It looks good, but when I looked back at the samples, I realized it was not right. I wanted to make sure before I went on.
Jane...I will make 6 sets. I just moved and most of my stash is still packed, so it has been challenging to find stuff. I had been collecting black/white to make a quilt of all black, white and red....I have not located the box yet, but I know it is marked so I don't have to open all the boxes to find it.
Thanks again,
Gerri
