Here's another substitution block. I am running low on fabric, so I really need to use more of the old quilt blocks.
This is a block called 'Star Flower' and it's basically a modification of the classic Lemoyne star, but made with half square triangles instead of equal sided diamonds. The classic one will show up a few blocks from now as I also have a hand pieced classic version with the equilateral diamonds from the old quilt.
Pat's block this time is an 'X and O' block she calls 'Hugs and Kisses'. I do like this block. Each of the four units in it finishes at 6 x 6 and there just happens to be a fill in area that is 6 x 12. So I'm going to be making one 'X' and one 'O' for that area when I get to doing the laying out, sashing and fill in areas.
