I like the look of the BQ quilt. Everyone says fast and easy...but for life of me i can't make out the block...is it the same block repeated throughout? It doesn't look easy or fast to me so I'm missing something w/ the construction ..??
ETA: i got it now!! i see how its done but still have a question..is it best to use a non-directional print? it appears one must turn the blocks to create the pattern, correct?

She tells us in her first sentence.
it is a great pattern that gives directions for two sized blocks. Perfect for pretty much any fabric. You just have to pay attention to the cutting chart and the direction of the fabric design. Love love this pattern. I have seen it in Christmas fabric, florals, and novelties. It would be great for t-shirt or memory quilts too.

Thank you Sandy, I see now you do make 2 blocks and orient the printed square so def good for directional prints which should've been obvious given most BQ's do have that...was in a brain twist thinking was same block turned..which is not the case.
