What's the name of this quilt block??
 
Hello,

What's the name (or one of the names) for this quilt block? It looks like one of the wings is put on wrong, but pretend it wasn't :)

The Quilter's Cache has this pattern and she calls it Double Friendship Star

Ohio Star is the same block, though it's usually done so it looks like a pinwheel with a pinwheel implied behind it--hence the name Double Friendship Star, above.

I use it in my beginner class and just call it a Double Star, I use the same fabric for the center and the right points, and it looks like a star is layered on top of another.

To answer the ? Yes, one of the blocks is backwards. If making the block in one color it really wouldn't matter to much, but if you are using 2 colors for the points, you want them to be right.
peace
