Name of This Quilt--if any

Tallchick, I think you nailed it. Bet it has a name or two or three, so MaryKa make it and name it what you wish. I agree a good way to use up odds and ends, bits and pieces or to help clear out the stash bin. Any size blocks would do from the tiny to the large. I like the black consistent color with the plaids but any color would work: red or green with Christmas prints, brown with golds and oranges and rusty red for fall. Oh I could go on and on. Time to stop dreaming give it a go. .

It is a take on 16 patch and pinwheels, using 4 patches and a controlled palate for the pinwheels. It can also be made with 9 patches. I have used it on several occasions. The overall effect makes the pattern look much more difficult that it really is.

I agree that this is simply a 4-patch alternating with a QST, using a constant dark in the QST and alternating the orientation of the QST row by row. Just decide on the size block you want and off you go.
