Patrice this absolutely striking!! I do not have EQ but I had to try figuring it out--with graph paper, info from Mr. Google on how to draw a perfect octagon, and a bunch of scraps. I am very pleased with my attempt and learned a whole pile in the process. I need to make a block for the Tinners group in our guild. I hope you don't mind if I use your block and give you credit for the inspiration. It is so unique.
