BEGINNER’S CHOICE, 3″, Dark
Today’s block was one presented by Laura Wheeler through the Old Chelsea Station Needlecraft Service, and also through Sioux City Journal, 1940.
Those old quilters had a sarcastic sense of humour! This is the original block:

THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT, 3″, Dark
The House that Jack Built is an early Ladies Art Company block (#265, c. 1895), drawing its name from the 1755 English nursery rhyme, The House that Jack Built. A similar block (with more stripes in the squares) was documented by Carrie Hall in 1935; she called it House the Jack Built, without the definite article. Grandma Dexter went for a simpler name: Triple Stripe.

THE ARROWHEAD, 3″, Dark
[показать]
Today’s block was first published in the Kansas City Star in 1941. The correct name for this block is The Arrowhead, with the definite article. According to Barbara Brackman’s research, em>Arrowhead refers to other blocks. Oh what a difference a ‘the’ makes!
