What is your favorite block?
#1
I am in between projects. As in - I have things to finish - but don't want to ;)
I like making blocks - 12.5 in particular - and love Quilters Cache but overwhelmed when trying to choose blocks to make.
I have decided I will use one specific background fabric and bright colors with it to make different blocks that I like - and one day maybe put them together like a sampler.
What are your favorite blocks? Post pictures or links - I need help!! :)

To help narrow your choice, pick a theme, etc. star blocks, or ones that share a word/name in common. I printed out 12-15 star blocks, went through the list.
My favorite is the log cabin block.

Right now my 4 favorites are : Blockade, Card Tricks and Jacob's Ladder, Fractured 9-patch
My Blockade was 2 bkgds and where this quilter has solid and scrap in the wraparound part I had one different fabric in each block.
My own quilts of these 4 aren't in my photo file; sorry
Blockade - not mine

It depends on what I'm planning to do with the finished project. For swap blocks, I like to use Louisiana "fan blade/flying geese" type block or Air Castle (9 patch star block). Almost any type of star block will get my attention, though.
For a quick quilt I like Warm Wishes, Trip Around the World and Single Irish Chain.
