It is true there is no real pattern name I know of except it is set in a fields and furrows setting. So it could be called a scrap version of that.
I agree that the quilt has been "tied". It is what a person did when they were in a hurry to have a warm blanket for winter. It was many times just sewn around the otside edge and "birthed" or turned though the opening and tied to keep everything from shifting around when it was washed. Usually the hired hands had these made from scraps.
This one looks like the front of a quilt wore out and they "renewed it by placing the top over the old quilt and tying the two together.
