Super-size square on point looks pretty simple. Take two squares of fabric (36x36, if you want to stick with a 1-yard quilt). Fold both in quarters. Cut each on the diagonal (one single cut - that's itl) - leaving the folded edges on one side of your cut, and the unfolded raw edges on the other. Do this to both fabrics. You get one center square, and 4 triangles. Swap the triangles, sew them to the corners of the opposite coloured center square, and voila. Square it up. Considering loss for seams and squaring, you get two 34x34" (or so) blankets.

Where is YOUR pattern? I have your rotary cutting book. In there? Looking forward to meeting ypu next year in Utah. Awesome venue!
Thank you for asking. It's in Quiltmaker Magazine #141 (September/October 2011) This should link to it: http://www.quiltmaker.com/patterns/d...html?idx=13685 There's a little something in my pattern that makes it simpler
Happy Thanksgiving day to you,
Anita

I wasn't getting anywhere with that pattern until I found the link by Evie on P. 1. Then on P.2, Kristakz (no. 12) gives very good directions on how to start. After that I understood what to do. In #25 Anita gives the directions for "Square on Point". Hope this saves some of you a little time in looking for these.
