That's what I see too, but I was looking at it as a 4 x4 with squares adn triangles making the sashing. Your pattern is much easier to see.

Now, I won't argue the chance that a certain person lays claim to particular color lay out, but even that is iffy! |

If I were doing it, I too would make 4 - nine patches and then sew them tog randomly. The one we did for guild, we broke down each visible larger block into four smaller ones to get the randomness we wanted.

I know this pattern by another name - scrapaholic. The block is actually 1/4 of the block that everyone is looking at, and it is incredibly flexible. I've posted two quilts made from different settings of this block - http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...k-t216883.html and http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...d-t207658.html. The quilt below is the setting shown in Kathy's picture, and the block below that is the block used. As you can see, it's incredibly easy to make, and great for scrappy quilts.

I think it's so interesting how we 'see ' different blocks.
dunster - your illustration is the easiest one for me to understand. That way would probably be the easiest one to 'build' in scrappy mode. |

quiltercache designed very very very few of the blocks she claims rights to. Most are older than our greatgrandmas.

I think it's a FREE pattern called chiclets by brandysquiltpatterns... If I knew how to do a link I would. just google it and you should be able to find it.

I do not believe that these blocks are sewn and then cut - it is similar to this quilt we made from the book Open a Can of Worms by Debbie Caffery.
That being said it looks to me that the block is assembled as in the second image. The quilt in eparys' first picture is usually known as Arkansas Crossroads, an old traditional pattern (older than me, at least, and that's saying something!). It's usually assembled with sets of 4-patch and signature blocks. I agree that the block design shown in the second picture is correct for the quilt that started this thread (by whatever name). The main difference is the corner squares are not white in the one from the Caffrey book. As has been pointed out, it's quite versatile. Quiltville's Fourth of July quilt is a variation of this, also. |

I just made this. I'm pretty sure this is about what you are going for. |
