    My guess is some quilter made up the pattern as she/he went along.

    just saw a similar quilt in a women's household magazine from many years ago. the pattern was called drunkard's path.

    And upon further inspection, I finally SEE what you have all been saying. Every block is the same- just set at different turns to make the lines snake thru the quilt.

    The link won't work for me either. I took out everything and went to Early women masters site and found lots of quilt listings but no snakes trail. I even searched but can't find it. I love the quilt.

    That's a really cool quilt. Looks like it could be really fun to make.
