I have these UFO's left behind by my grandmother. Some of them she labeled but several she did not. Please help me with the names if you know them. I could look them all up but, that would take me forever. I need to know the names so that if they need to be bigger I can add more blocks. Because there are so many I put two in each picture. Thankyou for your help it means a lot to me.

According to the book 5,500 quilt blocks. |

#9 could be a variation of Jack's delight the center square is on point though. #11 is a card trick.
|
love these. You ARE going to put these together into quilts - right?
|
I LOVE that little blazing star with the solid purple and purple gingham! Are the other blocks purple too or all different colors? What a treasure your Gramma left you!
|
#1 Peace and Plenty
|
#4 has several names: Flying stars, flying barn swallows, falling star, circling swallows, whirling star, the wreath.
#Stars and stripes (not sure why), snow flake, forever |
#9 is probably navaho, it is on point.
|
all of those blocks are found in the 5,500 quilt block designs by Maggie Malone. There are several names for the same block. It depends on the time period that they were made most of the time.
|
I can't find #7 but will continue looking for you.
|
Oh my goodness! You've inherited quite a treasure. You must be having fun going through them all and deciding how to use them.
