    Why not use a large triangle of a solid color between the pieced ones and put the solid one upside down to make a row. Just a thought.

    It looks like the blocks with the solids on the inside should be turned upside down and alternated with the blocks that have the solids on the outside. Doesn't look like you have equal number of each type so you would have to make more blocks.

    I just googled "sugar loaf quilt" and that is the way it is put together. Pieced blocks alternating with solid blocks.

    You quilters never cease to amaze me. No matter what pattern is being search for, someone always finds it. I don't know how you do it.

    I have a hand pieced vintage top made with this block. they used muslim as same sized setting triangles. I love the top. Has old adorable old Aunt Grace prints mixed with others. It is very thin, so I have just draped it over old wicker corner shelves.

    Name the block? How about "Hazardous Waste?" It looks exactly like the symbol for hazardous wastes in hospitals.

    Don't know pattern but if you put 6 together you can make a hexagon.
