Thanks Rob. Swoon is the name of the block. Several years ago, a pattern called "Swoon" came out, where the blocks were 24". I reduced it to a more manageable 16" block for my quilts. I think that's the origin of that particular name for this block. I found it, with a different colour arrangement, in a list of traditional blocks once under a different name which I can't recall right now.
