No doubt many of you recognize these quilt blocks, but do you know their history?

We have Konza Prairie Quilt Guild member, Mary Jo Hawkinson, to thank for compiling a documented history of traditional quilt blocks, including the above blocks and a couple of dozen more. This is a wonderful resource and a fun read, so sit back and take some time to enjoy A History of Patchwork Blocks.
