That is a really pretty quilt! And thank you for not only putting a label on it, but your pictures! It will be so cool to look back at how you both looked at the time the quilt was made.

Jeannie, your DGD has overcome great odds. She must be an extra-special person.

No specific block name. It's just half square triangles with an alternate square after every 2 HSTs. I made a close up and marked off the blocks in Photoshop. Now you can see the construction and the fabrics. The real secret is the use of high contrast between the sides and top of the "brick". Each square is 5" finished. Hope that helps anyone who wants to make this. the photo also shows the fabrics in a more accurate color and pattern
