fan - a four patch block



What looks like a complicated block is really just flying geese units and rectangles.  This block is made in four quadrants and is a variation of the Dutchman's Puzzle; instead of two flying geese units making up each quadrant it is one rectangle and one flying geese unit unit, the colour placement here is the important thing with one portion of the sky of the flying goose a different colour to the other. Since flying geese units use seams that are on the bias and prone to stretching this is an intermediate block.
