    I posted a picture of this fabric awhile back and got some suggestions. I have made a number of blocks and am not totally satisfied but I can't see what I might do differently.
    So I am back looking for some more input. Thanks in advance for your help.I am showing the 4 blocks in one picture and then individual pictures of the blocks so you can perhaps see details better. Many thanks to the person who told me they had the coordinating Blue--I looked and looked and finally found it today at Walmart. If I hadn't known it existed, I would never have found it. They didn't have them together like they probably would have been at a quilt store??

    Right now I am leaning towards using the pinwheel block and the one with that uses the blue strip from the striped fabric.

    Original fabric except I bought the coordinated blue today

    I like both c & d the best, would have a hard time picking one.
    Sorry I'm not very helpful.

    What kind of a block is this? I'm not familiar with the name.

    I like block D but would like to see it with the dark fabric in the two corners, as well.
