Every time a pattern is published especially in magazines, they rename a block. It's original name is Tennessee Waltz:

I just finished making that quilt. I got the pattern from the May/June 2013 issue of Love of Quilting. The pattern in the magazine was by Liz Porter and she called it Emily's Wedding Quilt, so I guess they renamed it for the website version. It's a combination of 54-40 or Fight blocks and Shoo Fly blocks. Mine is at the quilters -- it's 115" x 115", so I didn't try to quilt it myself. I'll post pictures when I get it back.

I saw the Fons and Porter TV show where they demonstrated making this quilt. Liz made it for her daughter for a wedding gift, thus the name Emily's Wedding Quilt for her particular version. You did a beautiful job! Love your colors. It's on my bucket list (along with soooo many others). I like the idea of adding a narrow "solid" border to frame the quilt. The one you have in the first picture looks good.
