i had the same question. believe you me ... i had about a dozen very "different" names for it by the time i was done. :shock: :XD:

i must confess to having developed a serious case of block envy looking at the pics ya'll have posted of your C & B blocks. not a galloping horse in the bunch. i've been admiring not only the precision, but everyone's color choices. :thumbup:

sooooooo ... i just couldn't fight the urge to try again for a less gafarbalous rendition. i still prefer everyone else's color combinations but i needed a block like this for a project already started in these fabrics. which means, i suspect, that yet another attempt is somewhere in my future. :roll:

for now, though, the question of the day becomes: can a Corn & Beans block change its spots?
