I had trouble writing the 4th round clearly, (probably due to lack of sleep) and welcome any suggestions for making it easier to follow.

  1. I am enjoying this site immensely. I have recently gotten the granny square bug. I am looking at the Wagon Wheel instructions. The display of squares to the right of the instruction is what has taken my eye. It does not look like the wagon wheel. It appears to be more of a flower. Can someone help me identify this pattern?
