    So many I can't remember. Some I've even made up on my own.
    One of my favorites was from a cross stitch and called Cherokee Star. I printed the picture of the cross stitch out and it came out about a 2 inch square. The four little blocks in the center were about 3/8ths of an inch square. I had to use a strong magnifying glass to see them well enough to sketch them out on graph paper.

    It's in the both the first and second pictures on the left of the second. top left

    I was in the Boomerang Swap. Great opportunity to try new blocks.

    My favorites are paper pieced blocks... I was in the BOM here for quite a while, and I have a stack of blocks made from using all kinds of techniques :D:D:D
    I haven't ever made a sampler quilt.

    What blocks have you made? You forgot to list yours :D:D:D
