Help! What is this quilt pattern???
 

Hi,

My brother and sis-in-law sent me 2 quilts that my mom had stashed in her closet. I know 1 is a wedding ring but don't know what this one is! I would love to re-create it. It's falling apart and very fragile so I don't want to mess with it too much....any help would be appreciated. The "petals" are not applique but the orange centers are.

orange peel is the name I believe.

or I think I saw something like that on F&P called wagon wheel

looks like a orange peel !

Thanks! I've also seen some similar called Jacob's or Joseph's Coat...you can find ANYTHING on Pinterest! None I've seen have the orange centers though!

I think the orange peel quilt is made with squares, this one is equilateral triangles with the curved 'petal' on the edges. The F&P wagon wheel is close, but it uses straight cuts instead of curves.
The one your mom made is called "Joseph's Coat''
Here's one pattern:

however, there are many different ways to construct this to get the effect. Some are paper pieced, some english paper pieced, some are applique etc.
You will need to google 'joseph's coat quilt pattern' to decide which one you want to do.

i've known it as wagon wheel

My book says Josephs Coat as well.

Saw a lovely quilt on pinterest - dark blue background with whitish melons - rather interesting

i've heard it's Jacobs coat. try that

by the way, your quilt is so beautiful! you can see the years of loving it has.

It's Joseph's Coat, and here's a very thorough and well-illustrated quilt-along tutorial for it. You can always add the circles at the center, they'll help hide any mis-matched patches. :thumbup:

Joseph's coat
Sizzix had a die for it but no longer makes it. the appliqued centers cover the points. I plan on making this with the appliqued centers on it, that way you do not have to match the points or even have them connect.

Cut away the points to reduce the bulk and applique the circles on top of it.

I'm envious that you have such a wonderful antique quilt, as it's right up my alley as they say. Whatever the name is, it's gorgeous. Thank you Paper Princess for giving the link to this pattern....I've printed it out and will add it to my bucket list.

orange peel

Yes, Joseph's coat...I have that set of templates by Zimmerman...found on line at a give away price, but haven't tried it yet. If you are into handpiecing, this is a winner too!

Peckish - I love the pretty pinks!! looks soo happy!! Would be adorable for a special little girl ...... haha or for me!! :thumbup:

I thought it was called spoked wheel.

I saw this on the cover of an older (at that time) magazine several years ago and it was called Wagon Wheel. I think the appliqued circle is the reason for it being called Wagon Wheel. It probably has several names, but I don't think Joseph's Coat is one. The link posted above that called it Joseph's Coat did not have the circle.

It is not Orange peel, at least in my experience. Life was simpler when people did not give their own names to quilt blocks,even if they made minute changes. Barbara Brackman tried to corral the many blocks floating around, but there are simply too many to keep block names straight.

I did see one today done like that , with the circles. Joseph's coat it was called.

Did your mother make it? It is just beautiful! What a treasure.

No my mother was NOT a quilter and neither was her mom. It's either from my great or great grandmas or my stepdad's side of the family...unless my older brother or sister know it will stay a mystery this side of heaven!

Joseph's Coat .. you are so lucky!!!!

I call it Joseph's Coat.. on my to do list ha ha
