Hello all,
most of you probably remember the Singing Quilter:
U. - far from getting round to quilt anything these days but the brain is always busy while the hands work on stupid household chores.

Those are triangles, but 90 degree ones, not 60, as often used.
The main block is on the front of your book - I'm guessing it would be inside too? The pattern in the video is not exactly the same, as the stacked blocks are more spread out, but the basic block is the same.
I found BR's books pretty good for explaining the general idea and then allowing me to work the specifics out for myself - you might have to do that to get the more spread out pattern?

Dang, I didn't recognise that! I guess it takes a trained eye to see from a picture like that in the video. I thought it must be those 90 degree triangles but I thought the stacks were somewhat bigger and wondered what the centre was made of. Hmmmpf, it's just bigger triangles. As for working the specifics out for myself - I'll have to wait until I get better before I can tackle that one, so much is clear. ;-)

But do check the book! The pattern on the front will give you the stacked blocks, it is "only" the spacing between the blocks that is different.
Many of the stack'n'whack quilts are done with the main "block" being triangles that don't extend beyond a central area - in this one they do, and so to get a "block" you'd need to combine with the background fabric. Maybe that is what makes it look very dynamic.
