I have a quilt made by this pattern that I purchased at an antique shop in Indiana. It is totally scrappy! And I really mean scrappy! It is on my bed, and I get lost in looking at all of the fabrics! I didn't know this was the name of the pattern. It is totally done by hand, and is very old, but is in good shape.

I agree about the sashing and your blocks are absolutely beautiful. I have the pattern for Carpenters Wheel but I haven't started mine yet.... Yours are outstanding, gorgeous....will be a beautiful quilt.
