    If you look at the quilt, there is a center yo-yo. I stitched the 4 yellow ones to that center, then stitched 4 more(same fabric as center) to the corners, this formed a square. Then I just kept adding around and around.......the square got bigger and bigger! Stopped adding when it fit the bed!
