I made this quilt for my granddaughter. It was easy and fun to make. I used a template and my rotary cutter to cut the shapes. Then I used the shapes as a pattern to cut more. I did it this way to save material. It was directional and I wanted to make the quilt as big as I could. The fabric is called "Totes on bolts" and it had three different patterns on the same piece of material. The diagonal border was made by joining little leftover pieces.

Thanks, Bear. Nice use of graph paper to show us how to do this. Those outside pieces look like triangles, but they are "truncated" triangles. That's what gives them four sides. (truncate: to shorten by cutting off the end or top)
