I'm trying to find simpler blocks for a long distance friend to make (this'll be her 2nd quilt).
I have lots of quilt photos I've taken over the years but they don't have names.
Does anyone know the name of this block, so I can find the directions for her?
I realize it's just 9 patchs, center square, and rail fences put together, but she'll need actual step by step.
thanks

Cut your center block 4 1/2" and use 2" strips. That should come out to a 12 1/2" block.

After sewing your strips d,l,d and l,d,l cut them in 2" strips and sew them back together to make the 9 patches

Sew l, d, l strips and cut at 4 1/2" to make the rails.

Your sashing can be any size you want although it appears to be 4 1/2" in the picture.

This might be a version of Cornerstones and Rails block.

Thanks--
I appreciate you taking the time to write out the steps. :thumbup: :thumbup:
I was going to do that but I was hoping to find a tute online that also had step by step photos since she's 150 miles away from me.
But I don't know the name to type into google search.
You don't happen to know if this block actually has a name, do you?
Thanks again

I can't find my books - packed up getting ready to move. But it is in the book 501 Rotary Cut Quilt Blocks. I believe the author calls it Building Blocks - or maybe Building Blocks II. I happen to remember that one because I am alternating that and an Ohio Star for a quilt for my son (which hopefully I'll get back to once we've moved).

It almost looks similar to the Queens Crown that is on

Check out all the quilts on www.quilterscache.com you may find it there. :)

I couldn't get the link to open.
I go to quilterscache often but there's so many blocks there that I get sidetracked and I'm there forever. lol.
But I'll go look now.
Thanks

Darn I don't have those books.
But you've given me a name to try searching with.
Thanks
