    Does anyone know what a block that has two same size rectangles and a narrower rectangle, (looks like a thin strip) is called ? I saw it some time ago, like it but did not save or bookmark. I did not see it here.
    Thanks in advance.

    Was it this one? It's called Pick-Up Sticks in F&P.

    I've only seen one other that was similar, it's by Alex Anderson and I don't know if she has a pattern for it.

    Yes, thank you very much. I will be making one in the scrappy look and one in only two colors, that is my next project. Have a nice evening.

    great pic. just make them square so they will all fit together when turned. they may look like rectangle, but are actually square.

    Here is a link to order the digital pattern

    http://www.shopfonsandporter.com/pro...ttern/patterns

    They use 5" charm squares(as noted on link above), and it makes a great controlled scrappy look.

    I have some gorgeous charm squares I am going to use in this pattern and add black as my center.
