    Could anybody please tell me the name of this star block? I made this quilt a long time ago and am just writing up the pattern, but cannot for the life of me remember the name of the block. I thought rather than spending ages looking on the Internet, somebody here would know it immediately and save me time.

    I recall seeing this on Quilterscache.com but do not recall the specific name at this time.

    EQ shows a Twin star with QST's, not one HST and 2 QST's.

    It's like a more simplified Twin star or a more complicated Friendship Star.

    Whatever the name, it's a BRILLIANT use of plaids. Love it!

    Maggie Malone's book (5,500 Quilt Block Designs) has it as Twin Star.
