The Missouri Star Tutorial makes this super easy to follow. Thanks for the reminder - I have to make some quick baby quilts and I know this will fit the bill for me too.

Then you cut the square in quarters diagonally, like a big X. This will give you 4 blocks, which you then play with on your design wall.
Super easy and fun. I'm making one right now where I alternated light and dark fabrics. [ATTACH=CONFIG]416028[/ATTACH] |
Lovely bright quilt.

That pattern is Hidden wells, I believe it is called.I am making a large quilt for my GD with it. You sew strips together measure width and cut a square that size then cut four of them diagonal X and label A, B, C, D. Then sew triangle A to B. C to D. It makes a wonder easy block. Google Hidden well quilt blocks and I think you will find lots of examples. Love those bright beautiful colors!!
