The OP's quilt is intentionally made with curved arcs. They are not 'straight lines gone bad'.

Instead of looking at the block with the square in the center, look at the intersections where the four points meet. There's your Winding Ways block. This was pieced with the bottom of the sections meeting on the square to eliminate the additional seams. Your eyes are drawn to it so that you see the pattern differently. When you look at the intersections where the points meet, your eye can see the WW pattern. It has a number of different names, including Wheel of Mystery and Four Leaf Clover. It's a really, really pretty scrap quilt.

I'm amazed at how you ladies find the quilt name when you only have the image. How do you do that? Ghostrider, I believe you found it exactly. It is such a pretty pattern and OP's quilt is beautiful.

Oh by the way jean, after looking at years of magazines and quilt shows, the designs kinda stick in your mind.
