    Default Name of block? (If it has one)

    I'm designing (or trying to anyway) a quilt where one side (or triangle) of an HST is made up of two smaller triangles, if you know what I mean. I'm not an experienced quilter so need to google the best way to make the block but I don't know what to search under? Sorry I can't post a pic at the moment but hopefully my description is adequate.

    I am not sure that there is a name for that block but perhaps the instructions for the one block in this quilt are what you are looking for http://www.patchworksquare.com/index...s=1&id=&link1=

    Think I saw your block you are describing on F&P show shown on the So CA PBS station last Saturday.

    This is also referred to often as a Boston Block.
