    Hi Karen,

    This is really a beautiful block that you are trying to find the name of. It almost looks like the second star might be appliqued on or something. Very unique for sure. If you find out the name of it please let me know. I would love to try to make one.

    Thanks,

    It would be a good one to paper piece but I don't know how to "make" a paper piece pattern. I wonder if someone with EQ could do it? It's a really cool block and I'd love to paper piece it! :D

    Thanks I am glad Michael liked his quilt. Plus I made sure that you post was seen by DQBM. She was tickled pink with your comments.

    Thanks,

    Karen,

    After seeing this post much earlier today I have spent countless hours looking in books, online and in my EQ7 for this pattern. I hate to say that I have not found the name of this block for you. So the next best thing I recreated the block and here is my version that I will call "Candlequilter Star" and dedicate it to anyone and everyone who has ever used candle light to quilt by. I feel this is very appropriate since the picture that danjfalke posted was of a very old quilt and probably quilted by candle. So here is my version of that block. PM me if you have any questions. I will be working on EQ7 to get directions out.

    Thanks,
    Sherryl

    My version called "Candlequilter Star"
