Looking for name of old block

Looked at Pinterest per Kathy T. and found this. It's very similar. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...7058b273c4.jpg

This old frail quilt was given to the church where I go to quilt with their ladies. No one knew the name of the block and I know someone here has the name and probably the background info on the name. The quilt is too frail to save and some of us are keeping a block to try to copy at some point in time. Anyone here have any idea of name and maybe when it was made. Feed sacks were used for some of the blocks. One of the ladies suggested it would be a great quilt to use neckties in.

Also would like to find a pattern for the block.

yes, it is an interesting block. I measured it just now. 10" I will have to try to draft it out for a pattern. Might have been a one off kind of block that the quilter designed herself/himself. Anyhow....I really like it. Thanks for the comments and research that has been done. This forum is the greatest. Which means that you all are great
