It is a pineapple block, but a different version.

The diagram below is the standard pineapple, and the corners DO get larger. But you can see there are no points until the last round.

eta: And it looks like this is the same as the quilt photo above. The trick is just laying out the colors for each block.
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what you said, but the triangles in the quilt pictured above that the OP is looking for definitely get larger. It's not an illusion.
You did misunderstand.

I was not referring to the picture, but to the link posted upthread - as I stated. The triangles are NOT bigger.

The diagram I supplied matches the blocks in the quilt picture upthread. And they don't have triangles in the corners.


And here's that block in a layout. Of course, I'm using the same blocks over and over, where in the actual quilt, depending on how many colors, you really have to map it all out before you start.
