Hi Guys,
I thought it was the Storm at Sea block, but the middle is different! Please help. [ATTACH=CONFIG]581004[/ATTACH] Hugs Caroline |
It's Hummer (or Hummers) storm.
https://www.quiltingboard.com/pictur...m-t187303.html On my bucket list! |
One block does look like storm at sea but the big one is Snails trail and I just finished a quilt using that block
|
One block is Snail's Trail. I just did that block for my Shakespeare in the Park.
I love those block combinations!! |
Love the red/fuschia fabric in this quilt, and the pop that the aqua block gives!
I recognize Snail's Trail immediately. Unfortunately, due to the horrifically high number of snails (and slugs) that we have in our lawn/garden/sides of house & garage, I'll never do one, lol! I don't care how colorful those things are - and we have yellow, purple, green and brown - they are disgusting! |
All I know is - it is very pretty.

I had seen this a couple of years ago and drew it out in EQ. It consists of a main block, the Snail's trail, a corner block in the sashing and a 4x8 sashing block that creates the star. These files may help you in seeing the blocks.
Edited to add: In looking at the quilt more closely, I have to maneuver my snail's trails blocks around. I'll probably have to make a new comment for the improved version. |

Yep, by the time I got the blocks flipped, I couldn't revise the prior post. The wings coming out from each 4 inch block are different than I first thought. In EQ I had to flip the blocks to make them end up like the original quilt. So, the colors are reversed in half of the Snail's Trail blocks or at least I'm pretty sure they are. This is a better representation of the original quilt. My first drawing looked more like brocade.
Edited to add: I made another image of the quilt with two color fun spots. EQ is handy for testing out different looks. |

This has more blocks and finishes up at 89.5 x 89.5 if sewed perfectly. I thought I would have fun and put two color spots in the quilt. EQ is fun to test color choices.

How about "Contrary Wind"?????
