Fons and Porter called this "Crossed Canoes." They did an episode on this pattern a few months ago. (Have it on the DVR) Awesome find. Have fun with them.

Somebody did a great job of hand-piecing. Lucky you!

I love the fact that they are hand sewn. I am happy for you.

Look at the link here to see how gorgeous those blocks can look without sashing as well.

Very cool. I wonder who made them...and why they remained a UFO. Clearly she knew her stuff! (Note my gender bias!)
