    Wowzer! You are amazing. Will you share the pattern with us?

    And who is that handsome fella in the picture?

    How much did you enlarge it and what size is your finished block?

    I have seen it as saw tooth fan, fireball and a couple of other names. It is a traditional pattern. when I did it I took it from Quiltpro's library.

    I think PP would be easier. If I find a pattern I like, I instantly think, "Can I convert it to PP?" then draft my own patterns. I have 2 filing cabinet drawers full, SO I NEED TO STOP! I'll never get to use them all.

    You did a great job. In just 2 colors it looks like one of my husbands table saw blades!

    BOY! Is my face red!

    I was going through some of my quilting books and found this one. Arrgh! It is the pattern I fell in love with! Right on the cover!

    I am so shocked that I had it all this time!

    Thanks for all your help. I'll post pics when I do a few blocks.

    This is the pattern we've been looking for!
