Love your quilt - just thought the half square triangles might be a simpler plan, for me, at least. Tk you for sharing this quilt - I think it presents such wonderful, creative ideas.

Yes you could do it with HST. As you said it will give it a different look. As long as you keep to the measurements.

I will post the photo of the blocks again then my drawings. I have put it here as well as at the end of the original post.

As I see it, the finished blocks are 12", thus making a 48" square quilt? Thanks for sharing your directions. It's amazing how the block was created. Repetition makes it gorgeous. Would it look good as a 96" square quilt?

You start with a piece of red 7.5 x 5.5 then add the black corners.

I don't see why it couldn't be 96" square. I only have a double bed(think you say twin). The photo is only the blocks laid out on my bed. I need to makes some borders.
