Yes! I have to tell you that every single 4P met the inside of those star points precisely! I didn't have to try. I noticed it will automatically happen if the cutting went correctly and the 4P's were sewn correctly...lol....(this is similar to a Kansas Dugout block meeting a 4P -- same type of conditions). Anyway, it's my most perfectly matched quilt so far!! haha! Didn't think that would ever happen...lol..Thank you so much, Tartan!!

http://www.quilterscache.com/A/AuntS...oiceBlock.html http://quiltwoman.com/Junk-To-Jems-Quilt-Pattern.aspx I've also seen the block where it was not connected to the next block diagonally but had sashings and the blocks were disjoined. I sure like the one I did the most as it eliminates the need for sashing and others may have to square it up, but I sure did not squaring up and loved the way it turned out so nice and square for a change. haha. Thanks again for your help in naming the block. :thumbup: p.s. I'm saving everyone $9 by using my own pattern! p.s. I forgot to say welcome to the QB from VA! You will love all you see and read here! :) |

love you quilt, love scrappy quilts
I have seen this pattern, done all in pinks and wish I book marked it to have its name....... but your instructions are easy too follow http://www.quiltingboard.com/images/misc/quote_icon.png Originally Posted by dweeks http://www.quiltingboard.com/images/...post-right.png I think the block is called Aunt Sukey’s Choice, made with a 4 Patch, Flying Geese, Cornerstones and Sashing Strips.

Thanks for sharing. <!-- END TEMPLATE: bbcode_quote -->Thank you, dweeks, for your nice compliments! This block is not exactly Aunt Sukey's Choice as the star points around the 4P center block are all solid whereas they are open areas in Aunt Sukey's. I would say it is a variation of the block. I've seen some other blocks similar to this also. Here are a few links for you. The second link is from quiltwoman and her pattern has a square-in-a-square as the center block and its name is "Junk to Jems" pattern and sells for $9. It's the same pattern in Clotilde's Jan.'12 issue and called Junk to Jems.

Well done, it's all that practice you have been doing lately! I LOVE this pattern and think I may have to pinch it! Can't wait to see the pictures of it finished! Give yourself a great big pat on the back, it's fantastic! :)

Scrappy is my favorite, and I'm working on my 4th scrappy now. This one will be added to the "wanna-do" list, until I"m out of scraps (like that will happen - not) I love your project.

Beautiful, just beautiful
