Hi there! This is my absolute favorite block of all of them. You should go check out my pattern before you go buy Thangles. It is made up completely with 2" and 2 1/2" squares. No funky measurements. If you make some make sure you post pictures. I love to see them all. Here's the link to my pattern.

Love this block how would I figure out the cutting/block size to make this a table topper so it measures a 24 inch block finished ?

Hi BMP! This is my favorite block of all. To make it a 24", cut the squares 3 1/2" instead of 2", and the half squares 4" instead of 2 1/2". That should do it. Please post pictures when you get it finished. I would love to see it, as I know everyone else would too.

Hi Olga! Everyone has to start somewhere! I think you did pretty good for your first try. Just keep practicing and it will come together right. Good Job!!!
