This was made by my great-greatgrandmother in 1833. I have checked everywhere and cannot find this pattern.

Can anyone help?

Check (google) Delectable Mountains--very similar.

That is what I was going to suggest as well.

Ohhhh what a rare treasure you have there! I would kill to have something that my great grandmother made :) Most especially a quilt!

That is beautiful and I love the fabrics in it!

That may be an original pattern. Double treasure.

Congratulations, this is lovely .....no name for the pattern though.

I don't have a clue, but love it.

Wonderful quilt. You have really been blessed with an heirloom there. Enjoy. Don't know the name of block but delectable mountains sounds good to me.

What a great quilt!! I do not know the answer however!

This one might be original. Can't find it in my books.

Ozark Mountains......?

Variation of Kansas Troubles......?

Ok looked in EQ and another program I have - Looks like it may be a variation of Kansas Troubles quilt block

It looks like Kansas Troubles to me.

Might be a variation of Double T? Try www.quilterscache for lots of quilt blocks.

I think it is G.Grandma's version of Kansas Troubles.

Yes, It looks like Kansas Troubles to me too. Perhaps grandmoms version. haha I see someone wrote the same thing.

Yes, It looks like Kansas Troubles to me too. Perhaps grandmoms version. she just got her centers inverted.

It looks like a variation of the double T pattern to me. That is an old old pattern.

love the quilt...what a treasure!!

what a great quilt....lucky you....sorry, do not know the name, good luck in finding it...

It is gorgeous! I checked Barbara Brackman's Encyclopedia of patterns and it is not in there. Must be original.

What a treasure you have.

You may be able to get help from your state historical society, or the state where your great, great grandmother lived when she made the quilt - it may be a local variation...

What a wonderful treasure! It's wonderful it found it's way to you to love and appreciate it.

WOW - what a beautiful & special treasure to have.

What a treasure! Thanks for sharing such a stunning early quilt!!

It is a Kansas Troubles; however your GGM made it uniquely her own by putting a colored square instead of a white. If you look at the photo you'll see the outside corner square is set in. In a KT block that corner square is white/background. Lovely idea and a lot more interesting.

beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know the name, but just wanted to say that you have an amazing treasure in that beautiful quilt.

don't know the name, but I would draw it up on a grid and make my own pattern calling it "monster mouth" - it makes me think of a mouth full of teeth, might make a cute Halloween stlye wall hanging or lap quilt. Maybe red, white for the mouth part and blacks and theme fabric for the HST. sharet

No idea, but what a lovely treasure you have there.

I agree; it is a variation of the Kansas Troubles. I checked a 1980 edition of The Collector's Dictionary of Quilt Names & patterns, thinking surely an old pattern would be listed there. KT was the only one even close. You have a real treasure.

Looks like Delectable Mountains with the longest strips set backwards from DM. What a lovely heirloom!

google it as 1833 quilt block............. good luck..

Google it as 1833 quilt block..it Looks like double treasure
Good Luck...

beautiful quilt.

I am no expert, but in looking at the dark and not the light, it looks like a building- silo perhaps? or capitaol building? Could be her original block. It is beautiful!:)

Wonderful, wonderful quilt. I think that it is a version of Delectable Mountains.
