I just finished it in blues with a white center. I did a 16" block. I only did one block. Our club has a challenge of old patterns and their history. Sorry I don't have a picture, my camera is packed.

Thank you for that! I was just going to look it up. That block is very pretty! Kind of majestic.

Lovely. As a basketmaker, I use the God's eye design when making certain baskets.

Godseye quilt

Here is one a girl from the quilt guild did and won a prize for it. Now the quilt guild is going to make one next month for a charity quilt. Then I plan on doing one, but I'm going to wait to see which back ground color I like best. Both light and dark are beautiful.

My daughter made one block for a quilt for her senior project for college, it was beautiful! I am going to make a wall hanging for her dorm using her favorite sayings and a block on each side,She will graduate in December and God has been with her through all her sickness. This is the only block that fits.
