Barbara Brackman's "Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns" identified this as "Double Windmill" and credits it to Nancy Cabot. However, with a change in fabrics she also uses "Double Aster" as an ID, again Nancy Cabot.

Judy, if you are referring to mine (it does get a lot of attention). It is from the book "40 Bright and Bold Paperpieced Blocks" by C. Doak. it is the 18# block in the book. I absolutely love her blocks. This one in particular was made for a Boom 9 swap buddy. She sent the busy fabric and I supplemented and it turned out perfect. It was my favorite block I did in the swap.

Lovely block, looked at pattern on quilters cache, I might try this on a one block that could be used as a mug rug for the table. This would give me a chance to see if I would try it on an entire quilt. I do see ***scant 1/4 inch seam***!
Anymore I use a scant and find it works better for me. Pretty block and does look challenging. Thanks for sharing your question.
