It states on page 72 that they could not find the block in any of their pattern source books. In their book they dubbed this block, “Original Star” (not a very original name - ha!). The only other place I have seen this block is in the book, American Country Scrap Quilts by Liz Porter and Marianne Fons. Perhaps I overlooked it, but I don’t think I did. I have looked through Electric Quilt’s BlockBase (computer version of Barbara Brackman’s Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns), Yvonne Khin’s book, The Collector’s Book of Quilt Names and Patterns, Carrie Hall’s book, The Romance of the Patchwork Quilt and cannot find any block that is remotely similar. TIP for EQ users: In EasyDraw, I set the snap points to 20 x 20. The finished size of the block is 10″ x 10″. This is what started my searching for the name of the block. The top photo is a colorful scrappy quilt made by my aunt.
