It's a Hollow Cube but the lights and darks aren't placed to look like there's a base and sides.

I purchased a pattern from my LQS last call Pizzelles Quilt. It is designed by Sandy Klop and is by American Jane Patterns.

IF ALL THE INNER PIECES MET IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A REGULAR TUMBLING BLOCK. iT STILL IS EXCEPT YOU OUTLINED THE MATERIAL IN THE MIDDLE. tHATS VERY PRETTY. iT ISN'T LIKE THE HOLLOW BLOCKS I HAVE SEEN. I THINK THIS ONE ABOVE IS EASIER TO MAKE. DID A QUILT OF TUMBLING BLOCKS FOR A CHILD. NOW THAT I SEE YOURS MAY DO ANOTHER.

Thanks to all of you. My friend will be so happy to see the great tutorial.

Like I told her...I don't think there is anything you need to learn that you can't find here on the board . I have learned sooo much from all of you. Thank you!
