Anybody seen this pattern before
 

Hello,
I like to use EQ7 to play around with color placement of existing patterns to come up with new looks. I saw the basic block used in this design in a free pattern from Jordan Fabrics and a for-sale pattern from Eleanor Burns. Eleanor Burns calls it Kaleidosope 2. Has anyone seen a design similar to the attached picture? I'd like to call it by its correct name if someone else has published it. Thank in advance.

I really like it and love the outside border - it really completes the design. Are you just naming it for yourself or doing it for a competition?

I looked on the Eleanor Burns site at Kaleidoscope 2

https://www.quiltinaday.com/shoponline/book/193932

and half way down the page is a Purple, blue and green quilt which is very close (different arrangement of lights and darks but the same sense imho) . You could always call it Kaleidoscope 2 Variation or some such concoction of words but I did not find any that looked exactly like what you have created even on Pintrest Maybe someone else will find something.

It is a Kaleidoscope quilt.

Looks like Storm at Sea pattern.......sorta.

I did a search on Kaleidoscope Quilt and found a lot of variations, all called Kaleidoscope. Oh what a flexible block this is.

What a beautiful design! It reminds me of Lincoln's Watch by Red Crinoline Quilts. It's on my bucket list.

I agree... kaleidoscope.

So many blocks have several names and a kaleidoscope has so many patterns that naming it Kaleidoscope Variation seems like a great idea.
And I really like the border, too. So many of the ones I looked at just kind of stopped and cut off the block. Yours completes the design and it makes it perfect.

It is a kaleidoscope. I made this one in my first year of quilting, back in 2007. I found the pattern in a book and then changed the border.

As Dunster stated the block is a "classic" kaleidoscope block and when many of these blocks are set together it is commonly referred to as a Kaleidoscope quilt. Changing the color placement can change the look but it doesn't change the pattern or the block.

The same block can also be made by cutting your triangle from strip sets. Then it is commonly referred to as a spiderweb. But both blocks are essentially asseblembled the same way by joining eight 45 degree triangles to form an octagon then sewing on the corner triangle to form a square block. Here is one I did using sashing. As you can see it gives another look entirely but still basically the same block. https://www.quiltingboard.com/pictur...t-t259196.html

True there are many quilts out on the internet called Kaleidoscope that may have a different look. Paula Nadelstern has taken a technique of fussy cutting fabrics and assembling them in different formations calling it Kaleidoscopic. Her quilts are amazing and she is utilizing different shapes than the standard 45 degree triangle used in the traditional kaleidoscope block. She is so amazing at this she even has her own line of fabrics specifically for doing this technique. https://www.paulanadelstern.com/index.php
