Linda Chase replied to Linda Chase's discussion Combo blocks"I'm sorry it took me so long to reply. The block is at the quilt shop and it took me a while to remember to photo it, then to download it... I'm over 50...what can I say? ! LOL"

- Tell us about yourself
- I am a long-arm quilter, both at a quilt shop and at home. I love finding little tricks for piecing quilts, 3D blocks and finding patterns that look so much harder than they actually are. I came up with a pattern for a block with 42 pieces that goes together quickly, like magic! EQ7 is a great tool, too. I enjoy teaching sewing/quilting to beginners. It's SEW much fun.
