Can anyone tell me the Name of This Quilt?
 
3 Attachment(s)
I recently inherited a quilt top that my Mom pieced prior to her death. I am going to quilt it and gift it to my grandson. However, I'd like to put the name on the quilt on it's label. I know that it is from an old quilting magazine in the late 70's. But I don't know what it's called. It is pieced in 3" blocks with plain red, plain navy, red handkerchief, blue handkerchief and white fabric. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
First picture is the full length quilt.
Second picture is half of the quilt.
Third picture is one fourth of the quilt.

Sorry I can't be of help, but it is beautiful and the work she did was so good.

It looks like a variation of Around the World.

that was my first thought, too... just the top and bottom halves connected at the opposite ends

The first picture is the total quilt, the second is half of the quilt, and third is one quarter of quilt.

It must be a variation on the Trip Around the World pattern. Just never seen the center of the quilt done on the outside edges. Great colors for a grandson. Simple to quilt. Look at my Avatar. Just stitch diagonally thru the center of the same fabric. This will accent the X pattern.

It looks like Trip Around the World that has the halves put together different to me.

I don't know the name of the pattern but your Mom did a really good job on it. It's super pretty. Enjoy finishing it.

My first thought was also Trip Around the World. But you can call it anything you want. How about Coming Home from Trip Around the World.
