I've had several replies/answers to my question about this fabulous quilt and the block it's made of. (I agree with you, maryellen2u!) Thanks to all of you for searching the web and pics and everything. After staring at it and analyzing my socks off, I've decided I think I can make it doing the following. I'll make 2 drunkard's path blocks, put them together (sort of like making a HST) mark the center diagonal, and sew down 1/4 inch from the middle, diagonally on both sides. The key is to sew on the diagonal thru the two quarter circles. Then I should have two blocks, each different, with a partial melon shape in the center. Not sure how to get the tiny pinwheel on the ends though, that may make me crazy. Anyway, I'm going to give it a try.
