I love them all....I love to go to quilterscache and look at the blocks....THEN go and look at the finished quilt...more often than not I love the block, but not the finished quilt..rarely does a really pretty block look good when there are 24 of them all bunched together...so I am of the TWO block quilt gang..hehehe

I told my husband the uglier the block the prettier the quilt!

I am partial to star blocks though...

I like Ohio star but there are so many it's hard to choose just one.

The Ohio Star and the Frienship star are my fall back, becausse they truly work well in a quilt. For a single block, I love the Japanese Lantern from quilterscache.com

My favorite block is whatever I am sewing at a given time. If I have strips to use (scraps) either log cabin or a string quilt would be my choice. The way some of the newer techniques show off fabric are flat out fun to do, too. In other words, no favorites, love them all. piecefully, the old one
