Hi from Mississippi! The quilt you describe is called "Rail Fence".

I think you have the scariest avatar on the board!

Welcome from NE Ohio.

Thank you Boston! I've been doing board searches and you all are a wealth of information! So much knowledge and experience here

Thanks for the welcome Abby'sMom and Husker! Good to be here!

SewBizGirl-- thank you so much! I'm off to google Rail Fence now. And my avi is supposed to be silly not scary LOL but I will change it if it bugs you (I can use a pic of my doggie or cat if you like )

Hello Thumbelina-- thanks for having me
