How do you make this block?
#11
I googled for a masculine quilt and this returned (with others). I have layer cakes, could I use them for this? Like cut each layer cake into four 5" blocks and then do the sashing?? You think its 3/4" sashing?

Lots of other good masculine patterns on the thumbnails including several that look like the same
pattern with fabrics placed differently. Hummm. Maybe my answer to a background for grandson's quilt
which I have just been "frozen" on. (Can't even get "out of the gate.") Thanks Meyert.

I took two layer cakes and cut them in to 2" strips and then sewed 6 strips together and laid it out like a rail fence.
Each row would be the alternate of the one before. Then I used 2 1/2" binding. My husband loves it. You can make it as long and wide as you like.
