This is the Alpine Cross quilt block that I introduced last week:
Last week, I showed the block in straight settings. This week, I am showing the block in on point settings.
With sashing and cornerstones:
Opening up the design a bit with an alternate block:
And even more space (I should try this one in green, red and white):
How about introducing another block into the design:
Same blocks; just moving them around to see what happens:
Which one do you like?

Saturday, we had blue skies and sunshine. Dad wanted to visit the ghost towns, so we packed up lunch, snacks and water and took a road trip.
I’ve posted about some of the ghost towns before, so I’ll give you wildflowers. The hillsides were in full bloom this day and were lovely to behold.
Clicking on the photos will not only give you a larger view, but also the name of the flowers.
This fella was also out and about, enjoying the beautiful day!
