    pattern is available http://tlc.howstuffworks.com/home/tr...uilt-block.htm

    I made a couple of modifications but essentially followed the patter. I removed a couple of strips on a couple of the blocks so that I didn't have the double color line when piecing the four blocks together. I really was an easy quilt to make.

    Most definately do it this way. Highlight your work.. And may I say what wonderful workings.
    I concur - either SID or echo the pattern but with a "weave".
