Default Help with "vintage" blocks

Oh, Help! I have found at least 20 blocks that my mother made probably about 1970. I'd like to put them together but unfortunately she did not put the pattern with them. Recently someone posted Jack's Chain and the blocks certainly resemble that pattern. The blocks she left are hexies surrounded by 6 4" 9 patches alternating with triangles. All of the 9 patches on each block match. There are considerable 9 patches individually made but using them will make the alternate rings not consistent with the matching she did on the wheels. How do I put these together? I see that Fons and Porter may have called this Rock Around the Block but both Jack's Chain and RAB are not quite what I have to work with. Maybe they will go back in a box?!
