I recently repaired a quilt like this; in fact, the colors could match each other like twins. This quilt was made in the mountains of East Tn in the late 40's or early 50's. The star points were also pieced in this quilt.

I love the quilt that started this thread. Thank you to ghostrider for the Quilt Index link, and 117becca I love your quilt. I hope to make a variation called Texas Star one day.

I was just viewing a pattern exactly like this one in Easy Four Patch Quilting 1999 Published by House of White Birches - Edited by Sandra L. Hatch, Jeanne Stauffer and in this book it is called a SnowBall Quilt. To me it's nothing like a Snowball and isn't even created like the Snowball I know. But the picture is exactly the same as your quilt...

Stunning quilt! I wonder how long it took to piece it? :-)

I have seen it called Seven Sisters.

Whatever it is, it is lovely. I know your friend is going to be thrilled. Please be sure to post a pic when it is finished!

Actually it looks like a tumbling blocks pattern that has been strategically done to look like stars.

I hand piece them and just call them 6 pointed stars.
