Default Name that quilt block!

Hello!

I really like this quilt pattern. I think it would work with a lot of colors and be a great guy quilt. But, I cannot find the pattern.

Can you identify this pattern? Thank you in advance.

It reminds me of a tessellated block. Very modern and you are right, it would be a good guy quilt. I'll be watching this thread.

Reminds me of the Greek Key quilt block but that is a square rather then triangle.

I liked it too until I realized how similar it is to a swastika. Now I can't un-see it. It's terrible how something like that can taint what is otherwise a good design.

Thank you everyone for your input. I am sad that the design has not been identified. If I find out they pattern, I will be sure to post here. To me, they look like stylized fish hooks. Or may fractals. I would also like to thank @GingerK . I learned about tessellation.

Thanks for looking!

I tried doing a google image search. A lot of pretty angle/triangle blocks came up but not that one. Sorry

Agree with the others ... an interesting modern pattern. A "guy" quilt or perhaps too, for the person who does not like "quilts" because all they think about are the traditional old fashioned patterns.

Unlike Dunster, I see it as a modern'ish pinwheel.
Could be an interesting switch up doing as a scrappy with assorted colours.

As for the pattern name ... I have no clue!
As for the pattern ... you could easily draw this one up on graph paper, for traditional piecing, or for paper piecing. It'd be a perfect PPing choice, as you would get those perfect, precise, pointy and straight strips and angles!

Go for it ... and then show us all what you created!
