The only difference is that the large blocks were fancy cut from a piece of fabric. Here is a picture of the fabric used.  This is not a good fabric for piecing.  It is better suited for either a border, backing, or fancy cutting. In the case of the above block, two squares were cut out of the fabric, and then two 4_Patches were made in coordinating colors  to match the size of the squares. The units were then sewn together to make the block. I did not purchase this particular fabric, but I made up this block because it provides a good illustration of what you can do with a similar overall design and this particular block.        FIND THE PERFECT CREDIT CARD Whether you are looking for CASH BACK , AIRLINE MILES , a BALANCE TRANSFER or even have BAD CREDIT , you can find the perfect credit card for your family.
