I'm making this quilt for my mom.....I found a quilt over vacation and that's the pattern i am using...BUT, i don't know the name of the pattern, nor can i seem to find the name..

So, since there is so much wisdom out there - help me out please!!

The closest i've come is Seven Sisters...Is this just a variation of that??

a block....

Texas Star I really like this pattern and have not done it because it is a lot of work, set in seams. Very nice!

According to my Kansas City Star Quilt Pattern Collection
it is a 6 pointed star. There are lots of variations of this block. Many different names. Hope this helps

I did look there (couldn't remember if that was one of the places or not :roll: ) And i looked thru all of their pages!!

I have googled star quilts, vintage quilts, 6 pointed star quilts, quilt patterns using 60 degree diamonds, quilts w/ diamond shapes......

sigh - running out of ideas...but it's also possible that maybe the one that was hanging in that quilt store was one that someone created using their own creativity.

I like to put the name of the quilt on the label when i get to that point!
