Is there a block named Minnesota Broken Dish, or MN covered dish or something similar? I don't know what it looks like, but I could swear I've heard of a block with MN and dish in the title. Anyone??

There is a book called "Minnesota Hot Dish" from Atkinson Designs. It's a very easy pattern, good for fat quarters or scraps. Here's one I made ; I call it "Sky Blue Waters", which is what the name Minnesota means in a native American language. I came up with the color combination while lying on my back outside, looking up at the sky through the trees.
I made another using fabric I had tie-dyed instead of a variety of prints. Photos at and
Julia in MN (you may call it a casserole, but we call it hot dish)
