    Looks like a variation of 'Crossed Canoes'.

    There are so many variables to researching a quilt. Do you know the date of the photograph? Have you tried your local library for Civil War Era quilt books? Have you looked online for persons who date quilts? Hope there is a reader here who will help you out.
