Default Fun project -design a block that looks like a dart!

I'd love to make a quilt for a local dart group to auction. It would benefit the Make A Wish Foundation.

I have to think it would not be difficult to make a couple of theme blocks that look like darts (you know, the kind you throw at a dartboard!)

If I made a couple of those and put them in the middle of a strip quilt like the one below, I think they'd get some serious bids.

It may need to be paper pieced to get the point of the dart. Or maybe I can applique the point on??

I'm thinking the body can be a thin rectangle with a HST near the point. And the tail end could be a square and a HST??

Any brilliant designers in our group?

I'd use the focus blocks to make a quilt like this.

Thanks!!
