    I had a whole box of old blocks like this and marvel at the fabric combinations. Definitely scrappy.

    It looks like a Rolling Star to me, just cut in half.

    I thought this looked like one of the Farmers Wife blocks but it is not. Very similar but not a match. I drew the block in EQ. It seems to be four 3 inch blocks together. Taking the fabric prints out may make it easier to identify.
