This block is a simple 16 patch, I've seen it called "garlic knot" "tied knot" and Pat calls it "Eureka".
At any rate, I was originally going to just sub in a 16 patch from the original quilt in the 'sunshine and shadows' set, but it had a LOT of that bright rose in it. So I salvaged what I could, pieced pieces where I ran short and added new neutral fabric
I didn't take a picture of the 'dead' block. But here it is laid out:
And finished
I think I did a pretty decent job of hiding the 'pieced pieces' by matching up the print repeat carefully.
