Another day, another one of these old beauties. This set of blocks, from a friend locally, are in pretty good shape to use just as they are. I have several blue ones, and 3 red ones I think. I did know the name of this block pattern once upon a time, but have forgotten what it's called. All of the blocks have fabric of about the same vintage. Gotta love this old blue, and then.....circles too! How wonderful is that???*VBS*

I know it as "Crown of Thorns" but perhaps more correctly, English Wedding Ring or Single Wedding ring. Pretty block and one of my all time favorites.
Obviously not quilting yet but I am going to go fetch that pretty basket quilt in just a minute!
Just taking one last peek at the blogs. VBS

Oh these are great too Finn! And gorgeous fabric!
I love the color blue in this one. :)
Can't wait to see where you're going with all these!
Another great old block! I am invisioning a great sampler with all these lovely blocks added together.
You are having way too much fun slipping these in one at a time, aren't you?
Crown of Thorns - one of my favorite blocks. I have pics of some incredible quilts done by the Amish in this pattern. I love seeing the reverse side of the blocks.
