What is your favorite quilt block to make and why? Can you show us a picture of it?

I think they call it the OHIO star block. I like it because I can put an embroidery design in the center.

This is my new favorite block, it is called Hope of Hartford from delawarequilts.com/BOM.
And I think my second favorite is the "No name block" also from delawarequilts.com/BOM

Mine is the wonky star block. It's great if you have trouble lining seams up, like I do sometimes. Sorry I'm not on my pc so I can't upload a picture for you.

I like pinwheels, shoo fly, prairie queen, or the star block in the middle of my avatar.

8-point star. I use it in most of my quilts somehow. It's my "go-to" block. My second favorite block is any star block.

Card trick using stripes or border fabric. Why? To put a different slant on things and find symmetry and order in this awesome world.
