I made this quilt in approximately 2001 and did not attach a label. I gave the quilt to my son and daughter-in-law recently and they would like the details of the quilt.
Has anyone made this pattern? Thanks so much for your help.

I do put very detailed labels on all quilts now!

It looks to me like Attic Windows, diagonally set, with a nine patch inside each window.

It looks like a version of tumbling blocks. Usually all 3 sides of the block are the same diamond shape, but in this case one side is a square 9-patch and the other two sides are parallelograms.

Edited: It is hard to see the pattern because we're not looking at the quilt straight on.

Sorry, I have no idea on the details ... instead, I will admire this quilt!

What a great 3-D effect created.
I keep visualizing a spin-off with FC centres in place of the 9Ps.


Yeaaa!!! for the Canadian penny that got into the photo.
However, I don't think this is a mini-quilt, as it looks like it is draped over a couch.
So I am not sure what purpose the copper is serving?

I think it is a variation of the Nine Patch Tumbler Block quilt pattern.

It's a tumbling block pattern using 9-patches for one side. Very nice quilt.

I like the quilt.
I have no idea what the pattern name is.
Do you remember if you used set-in or partial seams when you constructed it?
I can draw the body of the quilt, but I have not figured out how to assemble it - yet.

bear, it's Attic Windows, so the sides are sewn in a "Y" seam.

Poor Queen Elizabeth, to be so easily confused with our beloved yet homely Abraham Lincoln.

I, too, was wondering what purpose was served by placing a penny on top of the picture.
