Shhh... don't anybody jinx anything.

Happy Block Heads Wednesday - Round 2, Week 3.  Welcome to Pennsylvania - the Keystone State!  

This is Block 3 - as pieced by Moda Michelle using fabrics from Old Cambridge Pike by Barbara Brackman and Collections for a Cause by Howard Marcus.

BLOCK INSTRUCTIONS - Block Heads 2 - Block 3 - Pennsylvannia. 

This is my Pennsylvania block.  It's made with fabrics from Jen Kingwell's Looking Forward Lollies and a background from Zen Chic's upcoming More Paper.

As much as I like it, I started thinking about what else I could do with the same "base block" - I'd just switch around some of the basic parts.  Basic... the definition of that is probably a bit relative.

First, I substituted a four-patch for the center square - the squares are the same size as the corners.  Then I used half-triangle squares for the corners and a quarter-triangle square for the center.  All the squares are still 1-1/2" unfinished, 1" finished.  The centers are 2-1/2" unfinished, 2" finished.  

In case you missed it - Block Heads 2 - Block 3 - Pennsylvannia. .

If you haven't yet visited everyone, here are the Block Heads for Round 2:
