Dutchmans Puzzle
Spinning Windmill
The Dutchman’s Puzzle pattern is a simple
4-patch block
constructed of pairs of
Flying Geese
blocks. An old design, it originated in the very late 1800s.
It, or some variation of it, is frequently referred to as a Windmill block because the spiral of triangles is reminiscent of the famous Dutch windmills.
