Block name

Postby granniebea on Wed Jul 28, 2010 3:21 am

I saw a block printed on EQ6 or 7( so I was told) that had the number W003.
I can't recall any of the blocks being numbered. I have both EQ 6&7.
The block is an Amish Dahlia using an 8 point star layout.
It also goes by the name of Golden Glow and was first seen around the 1920's.
Anyone know what I am talking about?? If so is it in the EQ 7 block library?
Many thanks

Dear Anne,

You are right, none of the blocks in EQ6 and EQ7 are numbered. W003, the Golden Glow, is from our program BlockBase, which can be linked to EQ6 and EQ7, or used on its own. The source for the block is listed as Carrie A Hall and Rose G Kretsinger: The Romance of the Patchwork Quilt in America. Caxton Printers, Caldwell, ID, 1935.

I hope this is helpful!

Best Wishes,
Sara
