The navy is my center square. I added a square on top of that and then stitched the navy on top to get the edging.

May,
Try a center square about 2 inches larger than the other four squares. You might even go to a 12 1/2 in square for your center.

Barb,
Your quilt is so stunning. I love it. You did a great job on the workmanship and the colors.
A BIG hug and thank you for sharing the construction information.
I've read many post where people ask for a pattern or information and the request is simply ignored. Your generosity is extremely appreciated. Thanks again.
