This square-in-square block design looks great when pairing prints with solids (or near solids) for a clean, defined look. Choose white for the block corners, or mix up the block backgrounds for more of a disco floor look.

    Are these really free? OR only free if one purchases a membership to Craftsy? If a membership is require than I feel that your advertising a free pattern is misleading. Headings should say Free to Members.
