This looks so much like the Bow tie pattern. The scrappy look makes it appear to be two bow ties instead of one. Or is it a difference in the pattern. Either way, it is very nice. You did a super job!

I just finished a bow-tie from shirting and wild prints. It makes mehappy just to look at a bow-tie quilt. Mine is called "Solstice Parade" because it is quilted in ovals and finished on March 20.

I like this pattern for several reasons--mostly for its versatility.

Years ago I used to own a book (passed down from another generation), which had this very pattern, but it was called the bow tie. Can it be that this has more than one name? Is it also called the 10-minute block on some websites today?
