Can anyone identify this block pattern for me? (please?)

Janice and Rachel are right. The pattern name is Firecracker.
Not sure I can put the link for this one but there's a quilt on about.com called
"Fire Cracker Quilt" By Janet Wickell. I'm sure you can find it through google.
Another blogger also talked about it here:

The arrow heads have straight backs next to the rail fence section. The one EasyPeezy posted has a different shape. No, not the same. Look at where the 4 arrow heads go together. The shape is different in the two quilts.
Here is the link to the Firecracker Quilt - it is exactly like Eddie's, just different colors.

I have a copy of the book "The New Quilting & Patchwork Dictionary" by Rhoda Ochser Goldberg, Published by Crown copyright 1988. This design appears on page 155 and is described as "I DO" then on the next line as an alternate name N-S-E-W (which I translate as north, south, east, west).
My mother found the book whilst thrift shopping and bought it for me...an oldie but a goodie...I have found it really useful, it has hundreds of patterns all in alphabetical order drafted on graph paper and has names and alternate names for each.
I was going to scan the page, but not sure if that is allowed.
