    Storm at Sea is a pattern that is all about motion. If you could find pictures of quilts with each variation you would be better able to choose which one you like. It is only important to have your colors in the right places in each block so the flow of the pattern is not interupted if you like it the traditional way. This pattern is very adaptable
    and can have many different looks.

    anita grossman soloman's sq in a sq cutting method. Might help you with either pattern choice.

    And another example. For some reason the light blue in the center of the block doesn't show well in a picture.

    hmm. Looking at the completed quilts, I realized the sq in a sq cutting directions link won't help at all, as the blocks are static, color centers, background triangles.

    If you decide to use those directions, you will have too many leftovers. So, unless you are doing a reverse storm at sea, or can used them in a dif quilt, it's no go.

    sorry.
