This week is another great blog hop - this one is hosted by Carla of
Creatin' in the Sticks (a fellow Island Batik Ambassador and Blog Hop Hostess extraordinaire!) All we have to do is share with you our favorite quilt block. Well, for me that is a harder task than you would guess - it's like choosing your favorite child! So, what I choose to say is that my favorite block is the one I am currently working on...is that cheating?
Right now I am playing in my stash of fall fabrics and planning on making a fun fall quilt out of all those lovely scraps. I played around in EQ8 and designed this block for the fun of it!
Shall I put them on point?
Or set them straight? I can't decide! I guess I'll wait until I'm done making blocks and then figure it out! Now that I'm done sorting and pressing, its time to start cutting and sewing...
If you'd like to make your own block here is the pattern - you can get it free on payhip this week!
Stop by the rest of the bloggers to see more blocks and share in the fun! Here's the rest of the schedule for you:

Pretty leaves. That is a wonderful autumn or really any season block.
Cool variation on the bear paw. They make great leaves! Love those fall colors too.

Love your block. It will make an amazing fall quilt. Thank you, so much.
Pretty block, thanks for the pattern!
It is a nice block, looks like a bear paw and some added bonuses.
Thanks for the pattern. It is so universal can be used for any color combo for any occasion.
This is a really pretty block that would add so much to a quilt. Thanks for the pattern!
I like that you've used a fall theme, tis' that time of year!!!! My favorite!
Lovely block. The center really makes it pop!
Oh yes the fall has come even here in the south of Sweden. I really like your fall theme and the block is so beautiful
My thought at the start of this hop is that my favorite block is the one I am working on, too. Your current favorite is wonderful. Thank you for sharing with the free download ... :) Pat
It's a neat block! It would be pretty with any color combination.
I don't think I have made one, perhaps I should add it to my new bucket list of quilts.
Just right for Autumn! LOVE! Thanks for sharing!!!!
Ooo, this will be so pretty! I like the regular setting, it looks more like a pile of leaves ready to jump into. Thanks for sharing!

I like your block, unique and very pretty!
I'm with you - can't decide which layout I like better. Can't wait to see your finish.
Very pretty I love the Bear Paw too.
Our favorite blocks will vary from time to time, that's normal. I love your block, and it could easily be my favorite too. Thanks for showing us your pretty quilt.
I love those autumn colors
Another favorite of mine as well! Perfect quilt block for the beginning of Fall. Your quilt is so pretty! I think I like the straight version best. And thank you for the pattern.
Beautiful block and almost time for fall!
A great block is always one that is enjoyed while making, especially if using up treasured scraps! Your block reminds me of a bear claw and that reminds me of fall too, when bears are fueling up for a season of heavy sleep.
Lovely variation of the Bear Claw
That's going to be really pretty. Can't wait to see it done.
Great layout for the bearpaw block! Is this a clue as to what Accuquilt die you got??? LOL!! Can't wait to see!
That is not cheating. =) It's a beautiful block. Thank you for the pattern. I can see using this one. I like both settings, but all things being equal, I think I like the straight set better.
This blog hop is a great way to find more favorite blocks!! Love your falling leaves - thank you for the free pattern.
Love your bear paws. Love the colors you used!
Nice design! Does it have a name?
Pretty favorite block of the moment.
Bears Paw is definitely on my favorites list, too. Have fun with that Hop Quilt!!
Love your block....love that bear paw for sure.
Bear Paw is on my bucket list--haven't made one as yet-- I like your autumn design one!

Love them! I also have Bear Paw on my quilt bucket list... one day :) Your quilt is going to be gorgeous! xx
So pretty! I like your variation very much.
Cute block!! I think I like it on point... Hmmmm - It looks cool!
Very pretty. I really like this variation, but I see your dilemma in the setting! I love it both ways!
Love your Drifting Leaves block. Thanks for sharing.
What a pretty block. Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait to see the quilt you make with it!
