Blocks are often known by several names. I've always seen this one called "Snail's Trail." Actually, I think that may be the most common name for it, based on this reference for starters:

It's lovely to have the work of a loved one's hands who has passed.

Nope, no photos of the back of the Cathedral Windows. Would you show us the back please too and also put it in Eddie's tutorial. I love that you have her quilt. It is a work of art.

The quilt is Cathy's now and is at her home. It will be several days before I can get a pic of the back, but I will and add it here and on Eddie's tut also. It will be hard to see the stiching because she used white thread won the white fabric.

very nice

Sorry it took me so long, but I was finally able to get pics of the back side of that beautiful CW quilt. Remember this one is completely hand stitched not machine.

Second quilt is called a Monkey Wrench pattern block. I loved the work done on the Cathedral Windows and the applique' quilt. Very nice work on them!!
