A friend and I were just discussing charm packs and layer cakes and I wondered what you would call a 7 1/2 pack. After some colorfull suggestion she came up with "Tea Cake". So here's the skinny:

5" squares = charm pack
10" squares = layer cake

and

7 1/2" squares = tea cake.

How's that for changing the vernacular?

Great idea!!!

Good name!

Notice that I'm from Alabam also and you had me thinking....food...sugar cookies, tea cakes to my mama. Yummy. Made me hungry!!

Great suggestion/name :D:D:D

you are making me hungry, cool name

made me remember I haven't eaten lunch and it's 2:30. Way too much time at the Board!

I was President of the SooNipi Guild in NH for 6 years and when I retired members made this block in red and white for me.
It's a partial scrap - the reds came from my stash, the white is constant throughout. I need to make 2 or 3 more for a queen size. Taking to my summer 7 day quilt retreat to DO IT.
