This pattern could be 7 sisters.6 diamond shapes making a star plus a center star. The center hexagon is probably appliqued on. These diamond shaped pieces could also make tumbling blocks.

Very nice! What a treasure. Enjoy working on it and thinking of your great grandmother. Don't forget your label!!

I'm getting ready to add (very gently) a label to a grandmother's flower garden quilt made by my grandmother pre-1950 (had to ask my aunt when my gm quit quilting). Someday my kids will care to know that. :-)

What a lovely "gift" from your great grandmother.

The book cover looks like a match for your pattern ~if I can only find the book at garage sale prices!

I recently bought a quilt top that isn't finished. It was also made in the 30s same pattern as yours. I'd like to get my hands on some of that grren so I can finish the one I have. Any ideas on where to get that green in a reproduction?

Great looking quilt. What a treasure. It will be a loving expereince and connection to grt grandmother when you are working on that! How fun.
