I hope you can help me, this is the only description he has of it and I searched and he says the ones I found are not quite right.
Can't help with the pattern, but I have to wonder if the block was a hexagon or octogon. Had to take rays all the way to the end of a square block.
And ask him what colors. Remember a true Amish block will have only solid colors, generally heavy on black.
