Does anyone know what the name of this block is? Its a scrap quilt and is 5" finished.

It looks like the same pattern as the signature blocks I made in a swap awhile back. Those started out with a 4-1/2" square, with 2-1/2" squares diagonally sewn on two corners to make triangles. But it could easily be enlarged to use 5-1/2" squares with 3" (check my math - I just woke up!) squares to make the triangles.

Then just turn each square opposite the one beside it as they're sewn together.

I'll see if I can find the pattern. BRB!

Edit: Here you go. Just make them 5-1/2 unfinished", and reverse the lights/darks, and there's your quilt!

Rec'd a fantastic block from moonwork today. will definately try to post blocks tomorrow. Also a wonderful note from your Father. Cannot tell you how much it means to hear from him. Lost my dad as a teenager and this makes me think of wonderful memories. Please let him know. By-the-way, did you make the card? It is darling and I must steal the idea. Love to you both

Jaydee...he just cackled when I read him your message. He wouldn't let me see what he wrote and just had a naughtiness about him that cracked me up.

I didn't make the cards but picked them up at a church bazaar several years ago. I kept thinking...oh I could do that but they were raising money for their ladies fund and it's so much nicer to just pick them up and see their happy faces that someone wanted what they worked on. I let Dad have a set of them and he has to go through each of them to send and then pick out just the right one.


Received a wonderful 3D bowtie block from OKDarla...will post picture tomorrow hopefully.

Moonrise, thanks so much for the information. I pulled up the pattern from quilterscache and it sort of matches the one I posted but in the "real" quilt a friend showed me the white square in the middle was a solid piece. In the Indian Hatchet block it looks like the inside square would be made out of 4 triangles to make the square?? Im going to try the one you linked to though!! Thanks so much.
