    Crissie, I had to look that one up. There were only a couple of places that I saw pictures. Is there another name for it? From what I see, I like. Kinda like an organized crazy quilt.

    Here's a link to a site that shows you..its very similar to the tute I did which you can find here on our tutorials, only difference is starting with a triangle, I like how it gives a lot of motion this way :D

    You know I've got a book called 101 Log Cabin Blocks and I just looked in there and there's none that look like that. If it's got a different name I've got no idea. But it is a great looking quilt isn't it? Did you find the blog did you do a google? I think it could be order from that lady but it's so simple looking to me, but I don't know if I could figure it out right? Might be worth the purchase? I'm not sure if the lady that did the blog is the one that put the pattern out, I think I saw where you could order it?
    Thanks for trying to help....

    Well, Does that beat them all~ I looked at that, I don't know how many times but didn't take the time to read it! :oops:
    Do you think they are using a foundation? I think you'd most definitally have to~ Don't you?
    Thanks so much, it sure does take more then one to find something ...
    Thank You for your help I can always use a helping hand to see what's right in front of me<g>
