I am new to this site and I know it will be enjoyable...already I have a question for everyone...do you recognize this block...and does anyone know where I could purchase the pattern??? I believe it is an eight pointed star block and the petals and center of the flower are inset that is to say machine stitced into the star...Thankyou so much, in advance, for looking and a response if able

It is beautiful.

It's very pretty but I don't know the name of it.

Someone here posted a tute for this block awhile back, I wish I could remember.

i have seen this block before cant remember the name will look for it I looked and looked and could not find it and I know i had found it once before. I almost bought an antique quilt with this pattern. I thought it was some type of sunflower but could not find it

beautiful block

I know you are looking for the name but check out this site - you might be able to find it. Welcome to the board - you will enjoy yourself here and thanks for joining us! http://www.quilterscache.com/

i did look there

it looks like something Edyta Sitar would make..
it does not come up in EQ or Block base!

i found it it is the amish dahila http://www.quilterscache.com/A/AmishDahliaBlock.html

HA..I knew I had seen somewhere before! One of my guild ladies made these on a table runner!

She said take a good look, there won't be another..which is why it was a table runner and NOT the quilt she had hoped for..ehehe
