The Jane Stickle Quilt – Block E5

Block E5 is whimsical, modern looking and just fun to assemble. It’s the type of block I normally see in today’s modern or contemporary quilts. And Jane designed this in 1863! That’s just well…cool. 🙂

PDF pattern: Jane Stickle - E5

Note: Unit A and Unit B in the pattern are for the sashing. I chose to make 5-inch blocks like the original rather than sash 4½-inch blocks. If you prefer to add your sashing when your blocks are all finished, just eliminate the A and B units from my pattern. The center sections will then be 4½ inches finished in size and you can add your sashing later.
