Does anyone recognize this block?
A friend made this block several years ago and can't remember how it is put together. She has fabric to make more, but she's stumped as to how she put it together. If anyone recognizes this block and knows how it is made, please let me know so I can pass on the information.
Blessings!

Unfolding Star - adapted from a Nancy Cabot design and called Waltzing Matilda in Judy Martin's Ultimate Book of Quilt Block patterns the triangles revolve around a center octagon.
I have also also seen this without the small inner triangles, which allows for the center octagon to be larger.

I forgot to add, it is made with partial-seam piecing.
Sew the first triangle to the octagon with a partial seam. Working in a counterclockwise order, sew the remaining 7 triangles to the center, then complete your first seam. Then repeat with outer star points (each one first joined to a white quarter-square triangle).

I think this is the same block, just cut slightly different.

it was used in a quilt alon on the My Quilt Place forum recently. it is a difficult block comprised of almost all set in seams. but the resulting blocks completed by members of the quilt along are stunning!! so ...i got the patterns too!
