Default Help ID a quilt for a friend please

A friend sent me a photo of a quilt made by her grandmother. She can't remember the name of the pattern.
Could someone kindly identify this pattern for me?
Thank you sew much!

The light color stars are friendship stars, in a scrappy setting.

I believe it's a Bonnie Hunter pattern called Star Struck http://quiltville.blogspot.ca/2005/06/star-struck.html

I respectfully disagree as dark stars are not obvious in Grandma's quilt whereas in Star Struck there are two distinct star patterns, one light and one dark. Scrappy Friendship Star is appropriate as Paper Princess pointed out is Friendship star in srappy setting.

As mentioned by yobrosews...BH has the additional secondary QST along with star.....I think it is a friendship star and grandma's choice of scraps is what sometimes makes it hard to "see" the star.......I watched the tute called picket fence....identical to Friengship Star.....just another name for that "old" pattern I think.......
