Have done some googling - it's also known as Dutch Windmills http://www.justitdist.com/quiltinaday.htm or the Dutch Rose http://www.troymessenger.com/news/20...er-museum-ala/ scroll down!

It appears here in alist made by a girl who had to make 100quilts before she was allowed to marry! :roll:

But I can't find any specific info on why it's called gizzards - I can only assume that the negative shape left by the heart looked to someone like a gizzard! :D
