This top came out at 62" x 86"... big, for me. I didn't have a pattern. Just used scrap 2" squares for the 4 patches, and 4" squares for two HSTs, then trimmed them down to 3.5". You can arrange the block so that it will make either a Buckeye Beauty or a star... I did the star configuration. There's also another configuration called Jacob's Ladder. Very traditional... from before there were formal patterns.

I agree it would look lovely done in 30's feedsack reproductions!
