OMG what a wonderful journey you just sent me on... Looked up DM summer quilt block along and found so much more! So many ideas my head is spinning! THANK YOU (I think!) I even found a setting that takes 12 sampler blocks of this type and 13 (either pieced or printed) squares for every other block. They are set on point like I mentioned to Barb In Louisiana. Also found some great ideas for ways to set other blocks together that are already made in my stash! So many ideas, so little time! Might be time to change out some of these...

By the way, does anybody know the name of the first block? Janet

JustJan: I better do a search on DM also. . I don't need my head to spin but now I am curious about your findings. I love when we can help inspire each other with ideas, designers, etc.

Jane Quilter: I like those colors together.

Here is block 12:Aztec Star.
