Default Vintage Quilt Top Find!

Over the weekend I found this gorgeous old top in an antique mall. It's so beautifully pieced! Does anyone know what this star pattern is called... with the octagonal centers?

Also I am trying to decide if these fabrics are from the 40's? 30's? 50's? I have included some close ups and hope someone can give me some ideas as to the time period this was made.

I just loved it... and although it was machine pieced I plan to hand quilt it as it would have been originally, had it been finished.
