I too have lots of triangles stored up and here's a pic of a block I want to do sometime. It's called the Japanese x and + block but looks better in fun brights than in Batiks like this one. You'll use up 8 triangles/block, 2.5" size for a 10" block. Barabara Brackman's book on quilt blocks calls it a 'Spool' block.

I'm also working on Next Door Neighbor, a block that uses lots of triangles. The going is slow, but it does use lots up!

I'll get the link for you: http://quilterscache.com/N/NextDoorNeighbor2Block.html

This pattern uses 16 triangles. There's another one there too so you might check that one out. Hope this helps you decide. Thank you, fronzstore!

Here's a pic of the x and + block:

This is really pretty. I love the white background and how it makes all the scrappy squares pop. Thanks for posting!
