BROKEN WHEEL, 3″ Dark
This block goes by an amazing range of names: Jinny Beyer cites Corn Design, Crow’s Foot, Fan Mill, Fly, The Gay Pinwheel, Kathy’s Ramble (that’s not like me, to ramble), Mill Wheel, Old Crow,Sugar Bowl, Water Mill, Water Wheel, and Windmills; while Maggie Malone adds Pinwheel, Four Leaf CLover, and Mosaic #9.
The name that wins seems to be Broken Wheel, the handle given to it in Dakota Farmer on June 1, 1929; although Windmill was given earlier by Ohio Farmer in 1898, according to Maggie Malone.
Let’s not re-invent the wheel, let’s call it Broken Wheel.

BROKEN DISHES, 3″ Dark
Yesterday we had Broken Wheel, today we are going to get stuck into the crockery! Introducing: Broken Dishes. This was the name given to this block by Ruby McKim. Barbara Brackman tell us that Ruby McKim sold mail order patterns from McKim Studios in Independence, Missouri, and syndicated a newspaper column with full-size patterns in the late 1920s and 30s.

MIXED T, 3″ Dark
[показать]
An old pattern, we see the name Mixed T appear in 1897 from the Ladies Art Company. When repeated, the block forms a lovely tessellated design:
Mmmmm … funny how I had that picture all drafted and ready to add to this post …

LOST SHIP, 3″ Dark
I just love blocks like this! Lost Ship, Birds In the Air, and so on. The Lost Ship pattern first appeared in print in 1897 from the Ladies Art Company, according to Jinny Beyer. Today’s block is very similar to Mixed T from yesterday; the components have merely been rearranged.
