Blind Man's Fancy Dozen



Blind Man's Fancy
There's also an 18 inch version of the pattern (without looking I think it's 18 inch) in the book History Repeated by Betsy Chutchian and Carol Staehle.  

I now have the 25 blocks I need for my big quilt and can now proceed on to make the flying geese sashing from some scraps. 


I used civil war reproduction fabrics in these blocks. I have another set I'm making with rose themed fabrics. 


I've definitely moved this UFO forward!

Your blocks are fantastic, this will be a great quilt. I know you always juggle making blocks for different quilts at the same time but I still marvel at the way you pull sets of blocks and quilt tops seemingly out of a hat!

Great blocks, Cathy! I always love everything you do, but I'd need another half dozen decades to try 'Em all!

I like your fabric choices for the blocks. I have thought about making this block design for a long time but done nothing towards it.

As always, you are the most prolific piecer. Great guy quilt; can't wait to see what it looks like in roses.

I resisted these blocks last time you showed them, but between these and the rose ones, I'm teetering...
Pretty pretty pretty!
