    Default Can someone please remind of the name of this block?

    For some reason I can't remember the name of this block. I know I have it in one of my gadrillion quilting books but I can't find it!

    I know it as "Wheel of Mystery" it may have a few other names, as most blocks do!

    Yup Kitsie, I loved the color too! Red is my favorite. I think I will make one in red but with different borders.

    Lots of times, it's because someone wrote up a pattern and is trying to sell it. If they name it "XYZ Quilt" and an enterprising (but inexperienced) quilter writes down the name and googles it, it won't show up except for sale. However, if the seller actually calls it "Winding Ways", it's a traditional pattern and you can google it and find tons of free patterns and instructions online.

    At least, that's MY guess, for what it's worth. Lol.
