    This is not a traditional tumbling blocks. It is strip pieced. The creator is Baker (Marge, I think) I first saw it about 8 years ago on Simply quilts. So no Y connections but still a lot of angles to deal with cutting and joining just so.

    It is great. You are right about the pop of colour.
