With this shape in a layout of 4 alike it is the Kansas Dugout traditional block. The only difference is the traditional block has a square set in to the hole made by 4 of the diagonal shape instead of 4 triangles making the square. I just put the blocks up randomly on the design wall and figured I will play with the layout today. But, I'm pretty happy with it just the way it is.

Nice saturated colors overall. The quilt looks really fresh and solid.
What did you decide to do about the two different corner fabrics? In the picture it all looks to be the same.
I would keep the blocks right where they are - they look great. Love the subtle differences in the corner fabrics.
You will drive yourself crazy trying to come up with an "ideal" distribution. Keep them as they are and get 'em assembled!
I like it. Trying for the perfect layout is sometimes a lost cause. I just go with good enough most of the time. Happy sewing.
I think it's terrific as is — you could tinker 'til the cows come home, and I can't imagine it'd look any better than it does right now. Love it!
I love it. I think I will start on that pattern myself...perfect for collections and scraps from bygone days....of course, at my age, I should be finishing up...I just dont want to!! Good job once again Wanda xo
VERY nice!! Of course - after you said that you had 30 blocks and used 28 different prints in the diagonal shape - I had to look for the duplicates - LOL - ;))
What luck that there's no need to spend time rearranging blocks!!
Those look really nice. Well done.
I think that I need to get this die. I like this block a lot.
