    Default Tucker Block

    Does anyone know what the "tucker block" is or where I could find a photo of it or how to make it? I haven't been able to find it by Googling. I believe it starts with a 4-patch? Thanks

    Where did you see or hear that? I've heard of Deb Tucker who is a well-know quilting
    teacher and designer. Maybe it was referring to one of her rulers?

    I overheard a conversation from a distance at a quilting meeting and the person said they just made a quilt using the "tucker block" & she was gone before I had a chance to ask her.

    This might be a long shot but could it be the 10 minute block? That is a 4 patch and the center square can be tucked back to form the diamond shape with curved sides?

    It could be anything. At our guild some will call quilt blocks by the person name that demoed it or by a name that means something to only the other guild members.

    My guess would be Hunter's Star.
    Deb Tucker is very associated with this block and even has a ruler for it.

    My guess would be Quilt Magic. That is where you poke the fabric into foam to make a dimensional quilt block.

    Thanks to all for your suggestions. I have checked them out and none looked like that one. I guess I will have to wait until next month's guild meeting and search the woman out--hopefully she will be there!! I had not seen something like "Quilt Magic", Colleen, so that was interesting! That would be a great thing for a wanna-b-quilter that doesn't sew yet!
