One dictionary defines arabesque as "a complex and ornate design of intertwined floral, foliate, and geometrical figures." It's a fitting name for this pattern, as you'll find when you see this block set with other identical blocks. Take care in selecting colors for this block to achieve the intertwined ribbon and folded star effects.

To help in using Arabesque in your own project, a line drawing of Arabesque blocks set together is available for you to color in different ways.
