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.

Wow, sounds so simple, but looks so difficult.

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!!

I started with 3 jelly rolls; 2 colored and 1 neutral. I want it to be king sized, it will end up about 95 x 108. Blocks are 13" finished. I did end up supplementing the jelly rolls by buying about 4 different neutral skinny quarters, and I pulled some colored batiks from my stash and added those also. But that's the great thing about scrappy quilts - you can add different fabrics and no one will be able to tell.

I have made many quilts that use a similar pattern to that. it is called hidden wells and the msq has a tute on one similar that was done by the guys quilt shop guys. it was a fun and easy thing to do I plan on making one like the one peckish is making.
