This block was included in Ruby McKim's Sampler Quilt. My 1930s sampler has seen better days.
I was pleased to find an easy block in the Kansas City Star collection. When I decided to follow the KCS for my block of the week I thought I would just find the relevant block, make it and post it. However not all of the KCS are straight forward. It took me two weeks to make the Rising Sun. I skipped a few - should I now try and catch up with Broken Circle and Princess Feather? I think I better think it out again.
I attended a workshop at a lovely quilt shop that is full of reproduction fabric - Gippsbeary Cottage in Korumburra, Victoria. The presenter was Linda Collins of Quilts in the Barn fame. She has published a book with Quiltmania and on this day she was showing us all the quilts that went into that book. What a treat! We had fun with Little Boy's Britches and Panama Pyramids as well.
