Are you familiar with Debby Maddy? She has books and patterns along this design without Y seams. I have a link to her blog in my sidebar on my blog.Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15590505454197831780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-44951302473134613952009-02-24T09:22:00.000-06:002009-02-24T09:22:00.000-06:00I love that pattern....will have to look up that b...I love that pattern....will have to look up that block online.
