    Default Block Name?

    Does this scrappy block have a name?

    I imagine it can be made any size but wondered what would be the most practical - perhaps the centre strip could be 2.5 inches. A good way to use up jelly rolls.

    I don't know but I love it and the fabrics too.

    Looking at it from here it looks like it may be a challenge to line everything up?

    I don't know the name of it either but I am making a very similar block. Mine has only 1 strip of white in the middle of the square.

    I love it and the fabric but I would probably pull my hair out trying to match it!

    I make small charity quilts and don’t stress too much when things don’t match up - but it’s nice when they do!

    I tell myself the recipients won’t be bothered.

    Don’t know the name of the block, but the method looks like a tube quilt. Google tube quilt and you’ll get a ton of free tutorials, fabric placement is key and you can achieve many different designs.

    It's the Double Crossed pattern by Amy Smart.

    As seen in her blog - https://www.diaryofaquilter.com/2017...reat-utah.html

    ​It looks very similar to this weeks MSQC block that Jenny called Brick Yard. Pretty blocks!
