ANTIQUE GEOMETRIC QUILT DESIGNS *NO NAME STAR

Quilt Notes: This version of the NO NAME STAR, also referred to simply as NO NAME, or NO NAME PATCH, is illustrated in Rhoda Oscher Goldberg's QUILTING AND PATCHWORK DICTIONARY, 1988. But there are many other, quite different designs out there using these same titles — each quilt block collection consulted for this page displayed a different pattern! In this case, the "No Name" title probably refers to the diagonal bands, which would usually have family names, or the names of the quilters, sewn in. The NO NAME secondary pattern (scroll down to see tiling) produces a MAYFLOWER BLOCK with a square in the center.
