    edited to add: these are uncut blocks.

    This is a scrappy variation in which the the block is cut, but not equally. I think it turns out pretty interesting:

    I went to the link and the quilts are gorgeous. Then I ended up chasing rabbits. Managed to get to "Jelly Roll Races" which is another really cool idea.
    Thank you for posting the link.

    You're not losing it ... I recall the post and in fact printed out the pattern -- June 2011 ... maybe this is the one you had in mind: http://sundays-quilts.blogspot.com/2...hip-quilt.html
