Here are the changes to the pattern. I found the original pattern too "gappy".
The original pattern may be found at www.redheart.com. Search "Flower Tile afghan"
Because of copyright, I wasn't sure I could reproduce the pattern here.  You will need to make changes on the original pattern.

Changes are marked in red

Note: on round 6, when making the long stitch into round 5 there will be a  "bump" when the stitch is finished....just a bit of texture for the square.

4.50 mm hook

Rnd 4:  Slip st in ch 2 space, ch 3.  Change all the directions for dc to sc and ch -2 to ch1

Rnd 5:  Change all dc to hdc and ch 2 to ch 1

Rnd 6:  after “ sc in each of next 2 dc(will be hdc) on Row 5, (tr, ch 1, tr ) thus omitting the second tr, sk one dc on Row 5

Rnd 7 and 8:  Slip st in ch 1 corner space, ch 2, (1hdc,ch1,2hdc) in same space, *hdc in each st to corner, (2hdc, ch1, 2hdc) in corner*, repeat * to * around.

Note:  You may need to add another row to bring the square to 8”.

If you have any questions, please let me know....I understand what I did but it may not be clear to anyone else :-)
