If you investigate old quilting patterns from the 1920s and 30s you will find hundreds and hundreds of quilt block patterns. Although some could be called mundane, most of them are quite interesting.
I would like to challenge all of you readers here on the board, instead of making another d9p or log cabin, go and google search or find a book full of quilt block patterns and pick one you have not seen "made up" before, and try it! Make just one for a mug rug, or a few for a table runner, or a whole quiltfull!
....and then show it to the rest of us!
