I am trying to "see" the seams to figure out the real block. it may not be where the quilting "seams" are. interesting.
|
It's beautiful... and no doubt hand pieced. Wish I could help with a name but I've never seen it before now.
|
Thanks everyone. My first thought was Storm At Sea also but it's different. And Ube, I didn't even notice the second star before. My sister found one in Dear Jane, think it was called Wildfire or Fireflower.....it may be adaptable.
I was looking for an easy way so I think I will just forget about it and go on to my next project....the wall hanging swap.:)...my favorite! |
Apparently its from the 1930s, a Canadian Laura Wheeler designed it; she started in 1928 designing quilts. I got several hits in Google looking for quilt pattern "Wheeler". Did not find it in my Blockbase or Kansas City Star vintage patterns. Hope this helps.

In the EQ add on, Block Base by Barbara Brackman, it is labeled as Block #3947 OCS/Wheeler. I Googled it online and couldn't find any other name for it.
