These are really neat. I think I would trim them up and frame them...maybe in a collage. Putting the little ones in the same frame with a black felt background.

I think the one referred to as nazi is called a
rolling pinwheel. Thanks for sharing.

That rolling pinwheel is one of the oldest designs in quilting and had nothing to do with any country. It would make a wonderful wall hanging.

There neat. I would trim them up and put together. Frame it and hang it. It has a vintage look to me. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely old blocks .. and I wouldn't get rid of any of them.
Those blocks.. one of which is called Flyfoot.. and the symbols were around LONG before Adolph Hitler.. it is just unfortunate that he chose it for a symbol to "misuse". Can't wait to see what you make! A lovely piece of quilting history.

they almost look like they could be Dear Jane blocks...I would press them really good using starch and then re-size them to be sure they are all the same size and use them in something...I love old materials etc

Nazi symbol? do you mean the pinwheel?

We might hesitate to use that design today but I wonder if they were made pre-WWII. They look pretty old.

Yes keep them all.Until the Nazis used this symbol, the swastika was used by many cultures throughout the past 3,000 years to represent life, sun, power, strength, and good luck.
