About this block

This is a traditional block dating to the late 1800s, built by nesting an Economy block at the center of a Churn Dash. The Economy block's framed center square gives the middle of the design a clean, calm focal point, while the surrounding Churn Dash triangles and rectangles add movement around it, a combination of two well-established blocks into one more layered design.
