Thread: Do You Know the Name of this Pattern

One of the vintage quilts I am repairing is this pattern. It was made in the 40's-50's. I cannot find this pattern anywhere. We like to know the names of all our quilts.

I inherited a texas star quilt pieces thru my mother. I do not have any assembly directions. Does anyone know where I could find some? I can go by the pictures that I found. But was hoping for written directions. Thank you.

Looks to me that three different templates are used on that quilt.

A hexagon, a pentagon, and a diamond.

I think the pentagon is actually diamonds of the same color sewed together ( background), may be wrong tho.

The one that Rainbow showed - with the pink "hexagons" - the pink hexagons are made up of three diamonds sewn together. It is different from the ones that Parrothead and Corky showed.

The first one is made from three different templates.

PattiesPearl showed the templates I used to draw the attached design.

All of those units can be further subdivided.

I believe it is a version of the Texas Star Quilt
