Obviously, one of the 2 blocks here is single Irish chain. There are several blocks that are only different from the other in color placement. Including 4X Star from Ladies Art Co, New England Block from Needlecraft Supply, 1930, and Father's Choice. I have also seen it called Turkey Tracks (a block name with a couple other designs attached.) If I recall correctly, a quilt from my great great grandmother was in this pattern. I would say the pattern qualifies as "old". It is also delightful. Thanks for sharing it. This old lady would be proud to claim it.

Man O Man I wish I were the person who recieves it.Compare to a 15 year old I am old lady too 49 LOL.My husband refers to me the old woman has it or the old woman can fix it.I never call him old man though go figure.Other than that he is a wonderfull husband,been married to him almost 31 years.
