Something entirely different again in the field of patchwork is this gorgeous
block, the palm leaf. This pattern is sometimes called "Hosannah" which ties it
more closely to the religious significance which prevails in so many of the
old-time quilt names.
A quilt top made entirely of pieced blocks would be exquisite. Twenty-five 12-
inch blocks set diagonally would finish with 18 half blocks (large triangles)
and four quarter blocks into a quilt top about 68 inches square. A 5-inch
white border with a 2-inch green border outside of that would make it about 82
inches square complete.
Each block is pieced first in a triangle like sketch A, then two of these to
form a square, which is one-fourth of an entire block. If the colored
material be a print with right and wrong sides, half of the dark patterns will
have to be marked reverse.
Material Estimate: Four and one-half yards of green and six
yards of white will cut this quilt, borders and all. Total, 10 1/2 yards.
Quilting follows the line of the seams, about 1/4 inch each side of each one
all around and makes a pattern of slender triangles very effective even on the
reverse side.
