Ok, you got me hooked. I found a quilt on the Amish country lanes webside called "Dahlia Star Quilt. - I'm looking for a pattern for the block or a quilt but haven't located it yet. Lots of patterns for "giant" dahlias... but I would love to get that for my to do list if I can. Will let you know if I have any luck :)

Has anyone done this? I am really into flower gardening --so of course, I love this block--but don't really understand the directions. Would anyone do a tutorial if you know how to do this? That would be wonderful as I have never seen this block and it looks very unique. I would love to do it--I think it would also make a very nice wall hanging made out of fun big bright flower material for summer. (or for winter--so instead of looking at the three feet of snow outside my window--I could look at flowers on my wall!)

This pattern is not only an amish pattern as I have one that was pieced in Tn. long years ago. I think some called it a "gathering star". I do not have pattern, just quilted squares. Beautiful pattern, wished I did have pattern for it. Thanks

Funny, Charisma just posted a quilt with "vintage flowers" that looks just like what you've posted here. I think I've seen it in magazines and it IS a dahlia of some sort. Very nice effect. Good luck id'ing it.
