It looks like the Texas Star pattern to me.

It is most definitely a "Texas Star"!

According to Barbara Brackman in her "Blockbase", it was first published by Carrie Hall in 1935....just in case you wanted to know that fact! :)

This is a really sweet quilt, and I live the interesting way they handled the edges.

My respects to the folded flag on the shelf.

I noticed the folded flag on the shelf too, my respects to it as well.

My first thought was seven sisters, but I'm glad someone has said for sure that it's a Texas star.

Regardless of the name, it is perfectly displayed. :)

As a child I slept under one much like that, but all green and yellow, that my grandmother made before I was born.
