Default Tumbling Blocks question

I recently saw a tumbling block quilt using square-in-a-square blocks. Has anyone made this quilt? Can you post a photo? Thanks.

Do you mean the Hollow Cube block like this tutorial shows? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XD5K...el=CarolThelen

Not the one I am looking for, but awesome nonetheless.

The quilt I saw was definitely sq-in-sq. I've made a few blocks, but can't visualize how to put them together to form tumbling blocks. Maybe someone WITH EQ or good drawing skills can help me?

Thanks again.

Are you thinking about something like https://www.getasquiltingstudio.com/...-tutorial.html ?
Or maybe something like https://www.pinterest.com/pin/tilted...6942379559407/ which is similar but with larger square in square.

Do you have a picture or link? https://www.pinterest.com/pin/tilted...6942379559407/ uses larger square in square.

Was it like this one but the tumblers had a square in them? I played with the image a bit and came up with

None of the above. Pattern I saw was square set on point with hst in each corner. Truly a square in a square block. Triangles were gray and black, center square was a color.

Thanks again.
