    Default Name this block

    I got some vintage blocks recently and I don't know the name of the block. You will see at the bottom of the picture with the wedge that connects the blocks (which is in pink).

    That is an older block and according to a book I have on old quilt blocks by Jan Halgrimson it's called "Baily Nine Patch. I'm sure it's also known by other names as were many of the older blocks.

    That's the name I've always known it by. But I have heard it called Glorified Nine Patch, too. It makes a gorgeous quilt!
