I think it has to do with the state of Kentucky, but can't find it. I would like to make it for a guild project we are doing and I hope to find directions for a 12 1/2" block.
thanks

All I can think of is the tumbling block, look at the link.
What do you think?

I do not know what the name is but I like it. I bet I can replicate it. It's a simple block design.

Boy if you could that would be great! It would need pieces for the corners if I were to make it into an actual square block. Thanks for the time...

I'm pretty busy this week so give me time and I will see what I can come up with that is if someone doesn't find the block name first. I've got 2 tuts do get done by this weekend and I haven't even started yet. I will let you know what I come up with.

Here's something similar, although I can see how it's different. The one I am showing you has a square in the center.

This is what I came up with. The diamonds have not been sewn together yet. I haven't tried y seams yet and this has several.
Tell me if this looks the block you are wanting.

This is a 18 in ruler
