Looking for name of this block
1 Attachment(s)
Anyone know the name of this block? Every time I go into this store, this pillow calls to me....
|
They look like paper pieced cactus flower-try googling free paper piecing patterns-I forget which designes I found something like this under but there were a ton of patterns there. Good luck
|
If the store has an online site, it might be listed, with a name.
|
They have an online presence, but it's a regional chain and there's no info about the displays in each store. The employees don't know what it is, apparently the employee who made it no longer works there.
|
I'm pretty sure it's the Mexican Star pattern.
|
According to Barbara Brackman it's a Tennessee Tulip (Bets Ramsey design 1981) . Looks like it's been slightly modified here, which is not uncommon in quilted items that have been imported, as this pillow may have been.

Okay, you all want a good laugh? I can't believe I did this. I'm just too stupid to live. Not only did I know the name of this block (Cross and Crown), I'VE ALREADY MADE AN ENTIRE QUILT FULL OF THESE BLOCKS! Back in October 2010!
Giving myself a V-8 smack in the head.... http://www.seamstobeyouandme.com/wor...p-chain-maybe/ [ATTACH=CONFIG]341485[/ATTACH] |
Awesome! It is funny how that happens~its what makes this quilting thing so much fun! Change a color turn a block and its a whole new world! =)
|
Too funny! Sounds like something I would do.
|
The pillow in the store must have been saying, "remember me, remember me".
