    Great! I was hoping that was how you had done it. It's beautiful, and I very much like the way you distributed the design over the surface. It's now at the top of my list of new projects! Thank you!

    This is the ten minute block ,and after the first can be done easily in ten minutes or less. It offers a great range of patterns and layouts it can be finished with centre block hand sewn turn back or machine. I tend to do mine by hand and they then act as a pocket. Very large squares doing this technique and not sewn down make very useable pockets. Sorry no pictures as they are given away before I think.

    No, it it isn't a 10-minute block, although some of the photos give that impression at first glance. See the OP's explanation and my post #61.
