Ducks and Ducklings

 An advanced block since it uses the cats cradle block as a subunit and so has lots of bias edges.  The sashing between the "ducks" can be rectangles or a variation with squares and the width of the sashing can be the same size as the ducklings or narrower - so many variations.

Here is the one from the Classic and Vintage series from Fat Quarter Shop

The block is based upon a 5x5 grid or eneven 3x3 grid depending on construction
