I looked this up, since I was sure it had to be a known block. The second block is a reverse coloring of Sun Ray printed in KC Star. The pointy bits are a sub-unit commonly called "peaky and spike". To make a PP pattern for those, cut a square the size you want plus seam allowances. Draw lines from two corners to the centerpoint of the opposite side. Alternately, you could go to www.quilterscache.com and look at fifty four forty or fight, which includes this subunit.
