Zig Zag Path Quilt Block Pattern

Here's a quilt block pattern with a dizzying design. Not so curvy as a drunkard's path block, the Zig Zag Path Quilt Block Pattern is easy to sew using squares and half-square triangles. The bi-colored "path" on this quilt block seems to spin down toward the dark square at its center. When they come together in a quilt, the paths in each block seem to interlock or, when the every second block is rotated, take on a starry look. For an even more dazzling effect, swap out one of the plain fabrics shown here for a patterned one.
