This quilt gave me an opportunity to use up lots of scraps. I love both JL and BB so they contain aspects of each quilt. I mixed in alot of vintage fabs and I'll show pics of the interesting objects in it. It was easy to put together. I just alternated BB blocks with JL star points for an interesting arrangement. Have no idea what it's called. There may be a specific name out there for this block, if there is one. Thank you for looking! I hope if you make this quilt, you'll post pics! This quilt goes to charity for the homeless. I'll be piecing together a back for it next.

Very pretty. You sure did a great job matching up all of those points and corners. :thumbup:

How about Jacob's Beauty. I think it's beautiful!

Amazing, the beautiful quilts that can be made with scraps of fabric.

Very pretty.

Thanks everyone!! Yes, I was pleased how well everything matched up but I forgot to tell you there is one mistake in it! I took the block apart and resewed it only to find that I did it in reverse so it's still not right so I just left it. See if you can find it. The dark/light blocks are reversed in the BB block of all the 4P's. I'll give you a hint: it's below the 2nd intersection.

You've got me going now!! That's a great idea! Here's the 2 blocks so we can use our imagination in how it would look merging them! I always thought there was a Road to Arkansas, but there's not so included the pic of Arkansas Crossroads. That would be interesting mixed with JL too! Here are the links so we can all imagine:
