The black background in the one linked to above is very dramatic though. I may try it again at some later date. In the meantime, I keep working slowly but surely away at this undesirable UFO jewel box. I carry the scraps in a zip lock back and hand piece a little here and a little there.

Very pretty!!!

I am working on a quilt that has a very similar block alternated with another block that has a 4 patch center and the light hsts are inverted. The pattern is in Australian Quilters Companion No. 43. It is very pretty. I am using scraps.
