Found one turkey tracks that had the main block appliques to a white square background set together with same size blocks of white. Made the Turkey Track block really stand out. I liked it. I envision the Turkey Track blocks side by side and seems to me would be very busy. The picture I sAw on the above web site was very elegant.
Good luck on your decision. Virginia |

It could be. I'm attempting to send an attachment of the one I mean. I believe it is very pretty.

the blocks themselves that have the tt are not appliqued onto other, solid white blocks. they are the blocks. the quilt that jljack has, has the tt blocks but they cannot be put into a square setting because they were made in a slightly rounded form. she would have to applique the entire block onto another entire square block in order to make it fit into any kind of setting based on a squared format, either rows or points.

Virginia, what a fabulous quilt!

I realize that but have suggested ways to take care of the rounded shape prior to now. Regardless of what method she uses, she will have to applique.

yes, The Turkey Tracks are appliqued onto a solid white background.
|
you mean the red pieces, right? not the entire block onto another entire block?
