Favoritest has got to be the Ohio Star! Easy for me and I love playing around with different color combinations!
My favorite is the Ohio Star. I love all star blocks.

My favorite block is the versatile nine patch block. It is still a challenging block for me to make due to matching so many seams.
I love the log cabin block. It's simple but offers so many options.

Definitely the good, old-fashioned 9-patch! Whether you use traditional fabrics, modern batiks or a scrappy look it always looks perfect!

Churn Dash...
my favorite to look at is the double wedding ring and has been since i was little. mom often put her double wedding ring on her bed. i love the interlocking rings. BUT i still don't have mine done...... i like to make any star block.
That question is harder than you might think, so many wonderful choices. Has anyone said attic window yet? I'll say attic window.
My favorite is and will probably always be a good old fashioned 9 patch.

Half-blocks resewn together...unusual variations of fabric, turned in different directions creates different looks & patterns.
