    Randy, that is the title of an Earlene Fowler novel. You might could go to Amazon.com and search for the book. She puts a picture of whatever block the novel is named for on the cover. I didn't find a pattern for 7 sisters in my books, but did find a pretty illustration of one in a book called Quilt Style, by Lucy A. Fazely (2002). It was in a section on medallion quilts, on p. 36.

    Randy,

    Is this the pattern that you're looking for? This is a 7 Sisters pattern.

    look at this one; it's a fairly easy block to do. You can do it either the way it's shown by piecing each point to the star or you can also cut out whole stars and applique it to the fabric. Our teacher showed us both ways. Good luck
