Default Quilt kit dilemma

Does anyone else here hesitate to make quilts from kits, because you want your projects to be unique?

This was a quilt kit I picked up from MSQC on clearance at the end of last year..... mainly because I was smitten with the fabric you see in the border. I didn’t intend on making the pattern from the kit because I wanted to put my own spin on it. After struggling to come up with an idea with the fabric on hand I gave in and made the kit pattern. I am happy I did, even my quilting turned out not too bad! I can see this pattern becoming a go to when I need something in a pinch, as it is easy and quick.

MsQC calls it 9-patch and hour glass but I was wondering if this block combination has a more traditional name?

This one is destined for my father in law and his partner.
