Default Drunkard's Path wall hanging

My cousin has asked for a quilt using the drunkard's path block. I sewed up several blocks (and laid them out differently than her quilt will be) to make this quick wall hanging to see how it was going to work out. This is not an original layout but I don't know what it's called...
I wasn't going to finish it but I'm soooo happy I did - I think it's pretty cool. It finished at 25" square. Echo'd out the swirly design into the orange to the edge.
Thanks for looking!

Turned out very cool. One of my favorite patterns and I have never seen it in your layout. The quilting gives it so much movement.
peace

I love DP designs and this is genius! And thanks for putting your blog url there too....When I opened the post the first picture wouldn't show, just "Attachment 509466" but no pic. I figured that was a full pic of it and finally realized I might find it on your blog....and did! when I clicked on the Attachment link, just got a msg that it wasn't a valid link. This seems to happen a lot lately and I wonder why?

Thanks y'all. Yeah the attachment link is my fault. Long story but I couldn't get it deleted.
This was the first time I've made the drunkard's path block. I'm currently laying out the quilt that will use this - just have to figure out one other color then i can get to sewing!
By they way, I used the accuquilt die to cut this - and with the match up marks - it makes this easy peasy! I love that there are so many layouts for the DP. It is so versatile.
I had to chuckle that y'all picked up on the pizza box quilt tops! There are so many more pizza boxes to get the tops figured out and together but I needed a different focus for a bit
