"feathered" canoe pattern ?

http://blog.sewhooked.org/2010/08/17...ntessas-canoe/

Anybody know anything about this block?

I did download her pattern. It was missing some points and I was looking
for an excuse to play in EQ7, so I redrew it. I'm going to make it, but now
I'm curious about the block.

No idea, but it's a very cool block! I want pictures when you finish!

I'm hoping to make a quiltie with 9 12-inch blocks. By the time I put the
borders on in EQ, it ended up 46" square. I have enough of a chunk of dark
blue fabric in my stash for the background. Where she has pink and green,
I'll have a lighter shade of blue and orange. I don't think I'll use the
same light blue and orange throughout. Maybe I'll have a picture of one
block before the week is over.

Yes!! With that name I looked it up in EQ and found it in BlockBase. It's
not quite the same. The center is a little different. Contessa's Canoe has
quadrilaterals on the "feathers," but the Pine burr has triangles.

On some websites the Pine Burr looks more like a pineapple -- the Pine Cone
quilt for the State of Alabama.

Thank you!

between the lot of us we are one smart bunch!
That pattern is on my 'some day' list. Am I the only one that is tired of
folks rehashing classic patterns and putting their own label on them? You
open any magazine and it is done.

Indeed!! Thanks for the Fons & Porter link. They even have a video on how
to assemble it!

Just what I need, another excuse to sit in front of my computer -- I'm
feeling lazy today, so watching that video would probably be better use of
my time than going back to bed. Under the covers. Electric blanket on.
Watching it spit snow again. What to do, what to do.....
