Block No. 22
Jack's Delight
Ridicule as Humor
From Blockbase 2846 (Clara Stone's Jack's Delight)
The sawtooth block was first published by Massachusetts columnist Clara Stone over a hundred years ago.
Paper pieced sections and then hand pieced the sections together. Last step was to put the applique circle and star in the center block. Not in line with the pattern which is to represent the jagged edges of ridicule..those jagged edges are in my block but the circle and star represent the perseverance of the women's movement...be it in the quest for voting rights, or other rights of equality.
