I have to admit I like the nine patch, I know its an easy block ,but it can be used in so many different patterns and changed around so it never looks the same . All you need is a good imagination and some great fabric. Barbara

I really like Log Cabin. Not sure why, but it really speaks loudly to me.

I love the Card Trick. The first time I made it was a sampler quilt and it was so fun to see it come together when all the pieces were put together.

Me encanta el P P porque a la vista lo hace parecer muy difícil.  Ninette

I love the log cabin block.  Using different fabric choices and block placement you can come up with a design that is truly unique and individual.

I haven't done a lot of different blocks yet; but, I love the versatility of the log  cabin block. There are so many variations of the block itself and, the layout options are endless (I think).

I love stars. I loved making a Texas Lone Star quilt.

Disappearing nine patch variations

I'd say "Dresden Plate" is my all time favorite as I have 2 quilts that my Mother and Grandmother created and I cherish them and never tire of looking at all of the fabrics they both used.

I really enjoy the log cabin. It is so versatile! This, thick, color, texture, you can do so much!

I love stars--my favorite is Evening Star  or Sawtooth Star--called many different things.

Used in so many quilts!  Different sizes, centers, colors, etc. but all beautiful.

One version I saw lately even makes the stars look like fireworks in a dark

summer sky!  It is new and yet old...carries on the tradition of our quilter ancestors

and can look new and fresh and colorful.

Log Cabin is my favorite one, it can be placed in so may different layouts that are almost endless and each one looks different and unique with different colors and fabrics. One of the first ones I made was in golds and greens to remind me of the farmer's fields. I used the furrow placement and fussy cut the one piece and used the half log cabin placement for the fabrics, It is in memory of my husband who was always a farmer at hear.

It seems like almost every quilt I like has stars in it somewhere. I made a paper-pieced quilt for my husband recently called "Stars on Parade."

I have always loved the log cabin. I think it is partly because it is the first blck I ever made and it is easy to do. I am also falling in love with the pinwheel block. Hope it is ok to name 2.

I enjoy the nine patch.  You can do so many things with the nine patch.  You an be so creative.

The simple 9-patch is my favorite.  It's so versatile, and it's quick and easy to put together.

I love log cabin blocks.  They are so versatile in that you can get many different looks depending on how you place the blocks, plus the different ways to make them (no rule that they all have to be square, for example).

My favorite is the unexpected and unique crazy quilt block.

My favorite quilt block is "Hunter's Star".  I was asked by a friend to make a wall hanging for a friend who was getting married.  He used my friend's back-40 for hunting, so the Hunter's Star seemed appropriate.  I love the exactness of this block and the drama of using only two fabrics.

My favorite quilt block is the "Hunter's Star". A friend asked me to make a wall hanging for her friend that was getting married.  He uses her property to hunt, so the Hunter's Star seemed appropriate.  I love the exactness of this block and the drama of using only two colors.

I like anything with HST because they're so easy to make!

The versatile nine patch block is my favorite. There is so much you can do with the patches to jazz it up!

My absolute favorite quilt block is the pinwheel!

My favourite block would be the crazy patch block. My Grandmother made me a quilt out of scraps in a crazy patch and it was my favourite quilt.

My favorite block is the Sunbonnet Sue.  She is timeless!

Diffinately the Log Cabin Block, you can make so many different blocks from a log cabin style block.

My favourite block is a STAR, any star, easy ones, hard ones, they all make beautiful quilts, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them all.

I love Sunbonnet Sue.  I enjoyed making all the blocks from "The Ultimate Sunbonnet Sue for my grand baby girl.  I am still hand quilting it.  There are a total of 25 blocks.  I put an "angel" Sunbonnet Sue in each corner to watch over her.  I hope I get it done before she gets married.  SHe is now 5 years old.  lOL

I think mine would be Storm at Sea.  It looks more complicated but isn't.  I just think it is beautiful.

I like the log cabin.  It can be used in quilted projects as one would use half square triangle blocks in a large way.  By resizing some of the blocks, the blocks can create curves and other designs.  Add some extra cornerstones or triangles here and there and it creates sub-blocks within the cabins.  I think it is very verstile.

I like a lot of the vintage patterns and wish they would again be featured in quilt magazine.  The Grandmother's Fan, Dresden Plate and all kinds of stars are what I favor.

It has many names but I have seen it called Birds in the Air.  It's the one that's a big HST with one half solid and the other half having three triangles of one color and the rest of background.  (I also like Rosebud).

I like doing log cabin, using different fabrics & placement makes the block so versatile.

I love cathedral windows best. It's a really pretty pattern for pillows.

Attic windows is my favorite. I love all the different looks you can get.

This is probably one of the most difficult survey questions asked. It seems each time I start a new quilt, I am in awe of the block, (or blocks), I am currently working on. I always try to make different quilts with different patterns. I am in love with the Double Wedding Ring. Because of the difficulty, time, effort, love and prayers that go into each DWR, I think it is truly a very special block.

My favorite types of blocks are kaliedescope types of blocks. This is often star-like blocks with numerous slices. I love how they take the same material and give it multitudes of looks. It even takes an "ugly" material and gives it a great look.

Bear's paw is my favorite block.

I love the Log Cabin Block because it was the first 2 quilts I ever made and because it is so versatile. So many designs can be made from one simple block just from fabric color choices and block placement. It is a forgiving block to make and is a good way to use up fabric scraps. I could go on and on but you get my drift. Thank you for your contest.

My absolute all time favourite is the Log Cabin block.  I recently saw on done in rectangular shape; can't wait to try it.

My favorite block is the Churn Dash.  I have a partial quilt made by my grandmother & great grandmother in a very faded orange (1930's fabric) in this pattern that I love.

Hunter Star.  Just love the way I can make the stars different sizes.

I love the Carpenter's Star (also known as the Carpenter's wheel).  The easy version is so versatile- it can be made almost any size easily just my changing the size of the finished sqauare.  Also love the three dimentional look it creates.  I am in the process of making a 28 inch one for the center of a quilt.

This yeat any star block is my favorite block..doing quilts of valor and a star BOM.

My other all time favorite block is a string block--get to use up all those long skinny bits of materials that others would throw away. These make up into some bright pretty quilts that all go to cherity.

applique, any block with applique

The simple Nine-Patch is so versatile. Small or large, straight or on point, I turn to it often when creating.

The very versatile "54 or Fight" star block is my favorite. I used in it my 3rd quilt for a friend who was 99 at the time I was sewing it. She slept under it for 4 years before she became a shining star in the night skies.  It is difficult for me but I do enjoy overcoming obstacles but you can use the easy four patch in it and jump from difficult to easy in one block that really makes it doable.  Paired with the snowball block makes for eye teasing circles that aren't really there.  Try it you just might like it, too.

I love to do paper pieced blocks so I guess Mariner's Star. It is so pretty and intricate!

I love the log cabin block. It is so versatile & it reminds me of home. Think of all the generations of quilters that made this block. It's a real connection between all quilters.

I like the Tumbling Block quilt because it has that 3 dimensional look.  

I've recently discovered English Paper Piecing and I've fallen in love with the hexagon so I guess you could say whatever I am currently working on is my favorite block.

There are so many who can choose but  i guess maybe the log cabin,or the nine patch as you can do so much with either of them depending on how you connect them & the color combinations

My favorite is the Churn Dash block.  I think it's because it is one of the first blocks I made after the nine patch and even though I don't have a quilt currently made of the Churn Dash, it's still my favorite.  Maybe that should be my next quilt??  :-)

I love the Churn Dash.  It looks great in all sorts of fabrics from modern to traditional. It's even fun done wonky.  But most of all I like the look it gives to a quilt that uses applique and piecing: large applique blocks of various sizes interspersed with small pieced blocks--the perfect accent.

I have always like the feathered star pattern.  I love it done in Christmas themed fabrics for a seasonal quilt or wall hanging.

I would have to say my favorite quilt block is the Log Cabin.   It's fairly simple, but with the simplest change of fabric you have a new quilt block every time.

Hands down it is the rose of Sharon block. I was named for the rose of Sharon because that was my mothers favorite rose. The block has so very many variations whats not to love.

Hands down it would be the Rose of Sharon block. I was named for the rose of Sharon, as it was my mothers favorite rose. With all the variations of this block you never run out of uses for it, I just love it. You can machine applique or hand applique so you can take them and work on them anywhere.

Log Cabin.

I have a really hard time choosing between the log cabin and the storm at sea.  Both are great favorites of mine and I love how changing color placement and value can change the look of the blocks.  I actually can't say that I have ever found a block that I don't love.  Quilting is a true passion!!!

The log cabin block is my favorite because seeing a log cabin quilt is what got me started quilting.  I saw that quilt and wanted one like it, so I made one and caught a terminal case of Quiltitis while working on it.  35 years latter and I still have the quilting bug and have spread it to others along the way.

It is hard for me to say a favorite.  I love Grandmother's Flower Garden and also the Nine Patch because I did it in the first full quilt I made - for my daughter when she went off to college.  I know I don't like Log Cabin.  I Just can't get it to go straight and square up right!  

It would be hard to choose between Cathedral windows and the log cabin .love both.

I've always been drawn to the log cabin block. I'm not sure why but that has always been my favorite and you can do a lot with the variety of arrangement of the blocks.

I am a seasoned sewer and a very happy quilter.  I enjoy challenges when quilting. Right now my favorite is the mariners compass. To me it is a spactular aray of light, hope and celebration. I would hope that making this quilt and giving it to a special person would give me and them a sense of  feeling this spactular aray.

My favorite block is the Road to Oklahoma. Oklahoma celebrated it's 100th anniversary being a state in 2007. I thought about what I could do to remember this milestone in a quilt. Then, I decided to put a Road to Oklahoma block on the back of my quilts. One corner has the label, another has the Road to Oklahoma. I have continued this tradition, and people will flip the quilt before they admire the front, to see the block on the back! It's a fun and quick block.

~Hopppy quilting~

I love card trick, but right now my favorite block is one that my daughter & I are designing for the "Twilight" quilt that we have been working on. It's one of the book covers, two hands holding an apple.

How do I pick a favorite blocl. Certainly, it appears I like sunbonnet sue. I'm also a fan of the 9-patch, Ohio Star and Churn Dash. Drunkard's Path is also interesting to work with the many designs it creates. Over the years, though, I have found many other blocks that I like, so I really don't have a favorite - 54-40 or Fight, Nosegay, Robbing Peter to Pay Paul, Bear's Paw. I'm more like Carrie Hall and would like to make one of every block to see how they all go together, and document them for future generations in current fabric styles.

I love the log cabin block because I can use it in so many ways just by changing the color,size of the strips and placement.

I like making star blocks because they add so much interest to any quilt.  

I really like the star blocks, but haven't been brave enough to try making one yet.

I love the nine patch. It is so versatile. I've made stars, hearts, Churn Dash blocks etc.

My favorite is the pinwheel, I love the way it comes together.  I try to work at least one into every quilt I make.

right now it's the curved block from Rain Forest (F&P July /August 2006) I just finished a great wall hanging

I like the stars. The Mariner's compass I have wanted to do for a long time.

Log Cabin I am very attracted to. I plan on doing a quilt with my scrpa using that block,next.

Bear Paw is my all-time favorite, with Mariner's Compass coming in a real close second.  

My favorite block is a modified log cabin block I saw at Nancy's Notions Sewing weekend.  The center is at the top, and sewn in yellow, and then two shades of the same color and then green for leaves--it comes out looking like a flower with lattice sashing on point.

I love the disappearing 9 patch, with all the color combinations, and ways you can cut and twist, it never comes out the same way twice!

My favorite block is whatever I am working on - or the one I'm planning to do next!  I like variations of the Sawtooth star, and anything with half-square triangles.  I just want to make one of every block I see!

I like the versatility of the nine patch block and the challenge of drunkards path.

I loved the log cabin block.    It has almost an unlimited quilt design determined merely by color used and how the blocks are set.

My favorite block is The Log Cabin as you can make this block in many variations with whatever

color fabric that you choose. It is an easy block to work with.                                      Lorraine

I'll have to admit that I don't have one favorite quilt block!  Right now, I'm working on a king-size Pinwheel quilt, so it's my favorite today.  I'm a traditional quilter, and I love the traditional blocks, not only because of their beauty and simplicity, but because they lend themselves to so much interpretation by the quilter.  Over the years, I have made many quilts in traditional patterns, each one my favorite.

I just love the White House Steps block.  It is easy to do and I can use Fat Quarter bundles from the sale bins.

My all time favorite would have to be the Mariner's Compass.  Close behind it would have to be Feathered Star and New York Beauty.  I love points and complexity which I find give me lots of opportunity for color patterning.  Also, I hand piece everything, no paper piecing and I always have people looking at the back of my blocks in astonishment that I haven't paper pieced them.

I like the new Kalidescope blocks, but my favorite is an old one I don't know the name.  It is like a daisy and the flower petals are stuffed so they puff up.  I would love to find the pattern.  My Grandmother made the quilt and it has been lost.

My favorite quilt block is Drunkard's Path because it has myriad permutations!

I love the New York Beauty block.  I like pp, and the results are lovely.

My favorite quilt block is the Churn Dash. It reminds me so much of my grandmother. I remember her showing me, when I was a young girl, how to put this block together. I didn't really appreciate her wisdom at the time, but not I am so glad that she started the quilting "spark" in me. I always think of her when I quilt, and I hope she is somewhere in heaven knowing what an influence she had on me.

I don't have just one - but there is a definite 'theme' to my favorite block(s). Any and all star blocks or variations thereof. I love the Ohio Star, Star in a Star, etc. The King's Crown and Crown of thornes are other examples - at least to me - of star variations. These blocks remind me of all the good things in life and hope for the future. They make me smile!

Log Cabin - The first block I learned and still my favorite.  There are so many variations besides color themes and arrangement of blocks that the fun is endless.

I really do not have a favorite!

Log Cabin - The first block I learned and still my favorite.  There are so many variations besides color themes and arrangement of blocks that the fun is endless.

I love Fathered Stars, I haven't made but one when I first started quilting and found it was over my head. I want to make a quilt with feathered stars or at least a feathered star medallion with round robin borders.

My favorite block and favorite quilt are completed ones.  I love a variety of blocks and often make friendship star because it offers so much variety.  But I love any block that is completed and any quilt that is completed.  It gives me the opportunity to look for the next block I hope to work on!

My favorite block is the Carpenter Wheel.  I have tried different fabric variations and love the out come every time. I may love this block mainly because it is not very common, and I do like things that are different, not the same as everyone else does.

I love the pickle dish! I love that I can use scraps or a more controlled color plan. I love the contrast between the points and the background and I really enjoy sewing the curves (call me crazy!) And my sewing buddies think I am amazing cause it looks complicated, but it isn't!

BTW - thanks for the free Batik ebook! Sweet!

I love paper piecing, I look for complicated patterns and try to conquer them, if it isn't a challenge it isn't satisfying to me.  Right now I love the looks of the New York Beauties, mixed with a Mariners Compass.  I also love curved piecing, so drunkards path.

The paper pieced pinwheel is my favorite block.  I can o so many offering things b changing the colors.

Of all the block patterns I have looked at, I think I like the friendship star the best.  I love stars in general, but really enjoy making that one.

My favorite at the moment is the DIsappearing 9 Patch.  With all  the different ways the blocks can be arranged; it can give you such different results.  For a biginning quilter like me that is great!

I love the Mariner's Star. I have yet to make one as I am not that advanced, but everytime I am looking at pics of quilts, my eyes linger on the MS.  I have so many ideas of what I could do to change it in a quilt. it seems so versitile, you can change colors and it looks different every time.

My favorite block is usually the quilt I am working on.  I have used a number of different ones.  

but the simple Nine patch has been the one I have used the most in the last few years.  We have had a lot of babies in my family and I use that one to send the gifts.  

Right now I am doing a simple square surrounded by other rectangles and squares.  There is no "block" name to this.  I just made it up as I went.  

I plan on working on a pattern by Thimbleberries called Vintage Stitches to finally make a quilt for me.  

One of my favorite blocks is the "basket" since it can be made in so many ways--pieced, appliqued, paper pieced, and you can fill it (or not) with flowers of all kinds or whatever you imagine in a basket.

I love New York Beauty blocks.  You can control the color or go really scrappy which is my favorite.

The log cabin block is my favoritr, by far.  It is so "American" in feeling.  So universally adaptable to fabrics and styles, to variations, and imagination.  It seems to have the "melting pot" capability that we cherish in this country.

I would have to say that the Nine Patch is my favorite block.  I think it's versatile, I can cut it up and make it into something completely different or just change the position of the darks and lights.  I've made hundreds of them.  Maybe it's the straight lines, something has to be orderly in my sewing room!  

All quilt blocks are beautiful. They speak to the artist in each of us. Especially when color and arrangement are taken together with the form. However, because it seems to take all aspects to a completely individual level, and no two are exactly the same, the traditional functional Crazy quilt squares are my absolute favorites. I've never seen two the same, and I've loved them all.

New York Beauty crown type blocks.  Not my favorite to make, as they are ususally paper pieced, but I love the way they look in quilts.

disappearing 9 patch.  i love it because you can create a different look each time you create a treasure.

My favorite is the simple 9 patch.

Right know it is the log cabin. I love how you can change the color and it looks like a totally different design.

I love all the star blocks there are so many of them and they can be very simple or very elegant.   Lani

I JUST LOVE THE 54-40 BLOCK.  I LOVE HOW IT LOOKS WITH LIGHT AND DARK FABRIC VALUES TOGETHER.

I love the new Dresden Flower Garden block.

ARGH!  I keep adding before I'm done.  As I was saying...I like the new Dresden Flower Garden block.  It's a cross between my two favorite traditional blocks.  I also like blocks that are a little bit of a challenge.

My favorite block is the Mairiner's Compass.  I have loved it since I first saw one.  I have only made a couple of the easier blocks to use in quilts I have given away.  I am saving the more complicated ones for a quilt for myself.  It is the sharpness and contrast of the  points, the boldness of the form, the complexity of the design that seems to call my name.  It is like a beacon for an adventure that I can't hardly wait to begin.

My favorite block is the log cabin.  It is so versatile and I have made many log cabin quilts.  They all look different.

Sue

Crazy quilt block.

Ohio Star - it was the first block I ever made, and it still has a spot in my heart 20 years later.

Just love the carpenters wheel.  

I love star blocks.  

My favorite block is the star block.  They are the same but are different depending on the fabric you select.  They remind me of my grandmother who loved them too.

My favorite block is the pinwheel block because it is easy to make and I love the movement it creates.

hahne7@yahoo.com

I love the nine patch but I have to admit that my all time favourite has to be the DRUNKARD'S PATH as it has so many variations.I could complete a whole quilt top without repeating any of them and a stunning quilt it would make too.

I love anything with applique!

I really like the twisted windmill, and I enjoy hand quilting it, too. I also like star blocks.  There are so many variations. And now that I have the rulers, I like making flying gueese for them.

I have to go with stars!  friendship, Ohio, etc..not sure why--guess I simply like the way they look

I would have to say the New York Beauty. I made several as a group effort for our quilt guild's raffle quilt which goes on sale now until we draw the winner in December at our Christmas party. It is an easy paper pieced block, but the variation of fabrics you can use to create fantastic patterns is truly awesome. I love many blocks,but this one really stands out for me!! Thanks for the opportunity to comment.

I will have to go with the Log Cabin. I just think there are so many ways to change it up!

I am a newbie. I have had a beginning class and I am hooked. I subscribed to the magazine and I want to make every quilt I see. I love the nine patch and I am ready to try this on my own. I saw the nine patch online when I was surfing quilt sites. This looks like something newbie like me could tackle. Looking at the different quilts with the nine patch  is seems as though one could be very creative with the nine patch.  

My favorite block is log cabin with so many variations of position, endless combinations of color, shades and tones. I learned the block pattern from my Mom on long winter nights in the Adirondack Mountains in New York State. Many fond memories as I quilt today.

I love to do all of them --but--especially the paper pieced blocks.

I still consider myself a newbie even though I pieced my first quilt at 16 using scraps on a newspaper pattern my grandma made! That was 44 years ago and I am having fun quilting again! A lot to learn with today's technology!?? My favorite, although I have several, always seems to be the spool quilt....don't know why but it is....I can't wait to finish the 9 quilts I have started so that I can make it! In the meantime, I am practicing!!!! And learning but most of all having fun!!! :)

I love the traditional Log Cabin quilt blocks.  It reminds me of Grandman Gilmour sewing them together by hand for all of us grandkids.

I really like the sawtooth star.

I've seen my favorite called different things but the one that comes up most often is Twisted Star.

I'd have to say my favorite is the Nine Patch. It's easy and versatile. It can be done in any shape, split, and put on point. It looks different with each application.

The Ohio Star as it showcases a focal fabric.  I use it over and over for Quilts for Giving in

pediactric quilts for the hospital & hospice quilts.

I really don't have a favorite. I love doing all. Love trying new ones. Love to make sample quilts with all new blocks I haven't made before. There are so many on the internet to try.Thats half the fun in quilting. the other half is the finished quilt to love for years.

I love Corn & Beans, followed by Storm at Sea as a close second. I like the first because not only does it sew up beautifully, its fun to say! Storm I like for its versatility in design based on block placement.

I am an old softy for Sun Bonnet Sue. My grandmother made these quilts with her sister, Bertha. They called them Dutch Dolls.

i like the log cabin block the best, even tho I dont use it all the time. I have made3 quilts with it, one scrappy,  and two very planned. It just goes so quickly and simply that I love it.

It is hard to pick out just one. Sunbonnet Sue and Log Cabins are pretty much my favorites but I like most all of the old traditional type blocks.

My favorite is the drunkard's path. I just started making them and using no pins. Easy method and it's fun. Even though curves are supposed to be hard. I love it!

Since I am still very new to actually quilting the patterns, I still like the log cabin.  However, I dream of someday doing a Jacqueline deJonge paper pieced pattern and one of Renee Merrill's amazing patterns.

I would have to vote for the Log Cabin block as it was the block used in the construction of the first quilt my mother made for me.  Over time I have made log cabin quilts, I'm just drawn to this block as it is so versitile in the number of arrangements you can make and also I love to see it in borders.

I will have to say the carpenters wheel, I made it the first time from Elenore Burn's book Railroad Quilts. It was so differnt from anything I had ever done.

My favorite block is the nine patch, I love making the Irish quilts.

I think my favorite is the nine patch. I love making Irish chain quilts.

I live the fan block, whether it is by itself or as a circle, on point or straight up it's so versatile.

When I first started quilting, I decided I would never make a Log Cabin quilt.  Right now I am making one, and I have a second one waiting to be cut out.  I have had so much fun with this block that it has become a favorite.  Another favorite block is Dresden Plate.

How could I actually have a favorite when there are so many to choose from.  Have to have more than one so they would be Turning Twenty ( which is so quick and easy ) and Storm at Sea.  

I really like star blocks, and one of my favorites is Friendship Star. It is an easy block to make, and represents what I think quilting is. A gathering of friends.

have so many favorites -but one that I have always loved and my first quilt my mother and I  made togehter was the LOG Cabin Block, still  love it and the versitility you cna have with the basic clock

I like pinwheel blocks.  They are easy to make and can be done in several different color ways to make a quilt look entirely different and as colorful as you wish!

I have so many that I love but I think Snail Trail   aka Virginia Reel is one of my favorites.

My favorite is Churn Dash - I have made three baby quilts and a table runner with that pattern. My reason for liking it so much is that I fussy cut a center block and coordinate the colors and patterns around the center block.  'The first baby quilt has nursery animals (elephants, ducks and giraffes) and the pieces around have colors that match with the colors in the center, (yellow, blue and mnt green). The second baby quilt has nursery rhyme characters (Jack and Jill, Miss Muffet, etc) with white, green and brown solids accenting around the block. The third has teddy bears accented with brown, green and pink solids. The table runner is fall colors, deep blue, purple and ecru surrounding a fussy cut wine grape motif. Three 9" blocks connected with sashing and bordered and bound in contrasting deep green material completed it. My daughter inlaw has it displayed on a long, glass topped coffee table. All the Churn Dash projects turned out very well, I am going to use the same pattern to make more placemats and quilts.

I really like Rolling Stone.  The block itself is so simple to make, but when all the blocks are put together and you look at the whole quilt, it is just beautiful to me.  And I never get tired of using different color combinations.

I am a Mariners Compass fan... they are just so beautiful!  I am partial to Batiks but these blocks will handle just about any fabric choice.

My favorite block/quilt is the log cabin. It was one of the first I ever made, and I still make them after 30 years. I love them in all sizes, colors, etc.

Right now I am totally loving that Miracle Block!  I love how it takes a beautiful fabric and changes it to make so many different blocks!  I really think they should have called it "Bouquet in every Block".

But here comes the disclaimer.. notice how I said "right now"?  That's because if you had asked me this question 6 months ago I would have said "Oh, my fav is the Lemoyne Star".... lol.. and so on and so on... I just love every pattern and how every length of fabric makes an entirely different quilt.. you know we are all puzzle lovers at heart  =)

I love the 10 minute quilt block. It's fast and easy and so adaptable to showcasing fussy cut or embroidered designs. Have made it using everything from 5 inch squares to 12 inch squares.

I love motion - so my favorite block is the pinwheel.

New York Beauty... it has foudnation piecing (essential for accurate points!), curved piecing and more!

And it gives great movement to the quilt.

I love the Log Cabin Block.  It can be arranged in so many different ways.  It can be done with scraps, specific color ways and the size of the strips and center square can be varied.

Since I learned to make it, the Mariner's Compass has been my very favorite.  It looks so hard but once you know how it is so easy.  

My favorite quilt block, boy is that a tough one. There are so many out there that are wonderful. I have to admit though that my standard, go to block is the Nine-Patch. It's the perfect block for a relatively beginner quilter such as my self.   The Log Cabin and Irish Chain are other blocks that are so beautiful and are very versitle.

Churn Block.  I've used it so many times.  It's great to highlight a fussy cut piece.  Or a baby quilt.  It can even be a "manly" pattern.  The possibilities are endless and it looks a little more pieced than just a nine/four patch.  It's easy to do a stitch in the ditch quilting to finish your quilt.  

My favorite is the Lone Star.

Any stars are my favorite. I just finished an Ohio Star in red and white and I LOVE the way it turned out!

I love the eight pointed star and any variation on pinwheel blocks.  My basic get something together block, however, is the nine patch and all its variations

I like the Churn Dash block.  You can make the background more prominent or the cross, just by fabric.  It is also easier piecing, as I am relatively new to the quilting game.

I like the Mariner's Compass block, although difficult the effort to make it is well worth it when it is completed.

I would have to say the 9 Patch would be my favorite. There are just so many variations of this block and you can do so much with it. The Disappearing 9 Patch quilt is probably one of my favorites.

Log Cabin is my favorite because of the way it changes with dark and light colors.  Snail's Trail is fun and easy, too.  Want to work up a complicated paper peiced star soon, perhaps for a centennial look.

First in line of my favorite block is the log cabin.  I am working on a redwork quilt. I have hand embroidered nine blocks each with a rustic log cabin scene making each one different.  I decided to do log cabin  blocks using red and white material.  The diagional pattern they make set the hand embroidered blocks off perfectly!  I have to admit though that whatever block I am working with is usually my favorite!

My first favorite block has got to be Dresden Plate.  I have always loved the way it looks no matter what fabric type is used.  Another of my favorites is Card Trick.  I'm not sure why.  I just like the way it looks.  I am just finishing a disappearing nine patch quilt and I like the way that I can make it into anything I want by modifying the color, value, where and how I cut, etc... Who knows, maybe it will become one of my favorite blocks.

My favorite is the one I am working on.  I have only been quilting for about 4 years so there are lots I haven't done yet.   My next project includes a paper pieced medallion and I can't wait to work on it.

I know it's old fashioned but I love Ohio Star.

I like the star block, any variation of it.  

I would have to say that my favorite block is Hole in the Barn Door.

One block wonder - never the same

My favorite block is the Grandmother's Garden block.  I inherited a quilt made with this block.  Soooo beautiful!

WIthout a doubt, Log Cabin for me.  Same concept, many blocks and once the blocks are made, so many arrangements.  

My absolute favorite, is one I figured our myself that I made into a quilt I call "My Favorite Things."  It is very simple and I have never used it again.

The Log Cabin, because it's fairly easy for a newbie like me!

My favorite bloc k(s) are "storm at sea" blocks.  I just love that quilt design.

My first quilt that I learned on was the rail fence quilt, which was fun to make and experiment with color placement.  Flying Geese is another favorite.  I made two flying geese quilts, and have used the block in sampler quilts.  I enjoy making the geese blocks.  It is fun to see how they evolve from just a few cuts.  Plus, there are new, cooler and quicker ways of making the flying geese that I want to try.  

I really enjoy working with the log cabin block - it was my very first, and can be simple or complicated, however you chose.

My favorite is Log Cabin because it can be made so many different ways and choice of color in a Log cabin can make such a huge difference in how it looks.

I love all Star blocks.

My favorite quilt block is the bear paw. I also like stars. I guess

I just like to get to the point of things.

I don't have a favorite, log cabin, bear paws and all stars for piecing and I am learning needle turn applique and really like that too.

I think half square triangles are so versatile.  Just by changing color values and placements you can come up with dozens of designs.

"On the Oregon Trail", I've used this block for Christmas projects and it' beautiful, it would be lovely in batik fabrics as well.

My favorite ever since I saw it as a child has been Tumbling Blocks. I love the optical illusion. I like it a lot more now that I'm older since I learned to make it without the "Y" seams.

My favorite quilt block is the one that I get finished! Picking a favorite is extremely difficult as each can be the perfect block for the right quilt. Like Grace I am fascinated by the tumbling block and others that cause my brain to hiccough and my mouth to form a circle and say , "Ooh, wow."

My favorite to look at, but I haven't attempted yet, is the mariners compass.  But to make, I enjoyed the attic window

I really like the hidden star pattern. It's got a great use of negative space and can be so pretty!

So far the nine patch. I am just a beginner so this is easy for me. So many pattern not enough time.
