I could show you something and make up a name and if it sounds good you might be convinced.
Now here is another naming example. The individual blocks in this arrangement are Indian Hatchet. My quilt group is using them for a signature swap. If sewn together in this arrangement, the block is known to some as East to Eden.
They sure show up better in this picture. I am having trouble with light when snapping blocks with solid white in them. Now, I am stretching into next week with this one, because I am combining the Hatchets with some Four Patch blocks. I think this arrangement is more interesting that East to Eden. I don't know if it has a name, but it is similar to a Jacob's Ladder. (You will have to wait for J!)
And if I put them together like this, it is still different. It reminds me of some of the "Road" blocks. Maybe it should be Road to Eden!
Mrs. Nesbitt started ABC-Wednesday which now has its own blog locations. This one for the Mr. Linky and another or a no comment collection of ABC posts from around the world. All three sites are worth a look.
The summer is winding to a close and I may actually be AT HOME TO STAY in a couple of days. I promise to do some visiting then.

Your quilts are very unique.
Do you make them for yourself and family or do you make them for retail sales?
Bear((( )))
The quilts are wonderful!
Oh, by far, my favorite is the first one! I can't make that intricate a quilt. The present one I am working on has all big squares and 8 that have 9 square blocks to make up one big square. That's about as intricate as I get. . . and that one might not get sewn IF I can't figure out what is the matter with my sewing machine tension since the back of the stitches are loose. sigh
Absolutely fantastic Katney! So much patience required for an outstanding pass time.
Thanks for being part of ABC Wednesday.
Oh how pretty. I love quilts. I am going to PA in a few weeks and will be taking a trip to Lancaster where the Amish are. I am looking forward to seeing the quilts there.
another beautiful pattern ...

Beautiful quilts, Katney.
I learn so much...
Who would have thought quilt blocks and patterns have so many names?
This is all so complicated! I'd no idea there was so much involved.
Thanks for your good wishes.
Oh, how lovely and interesting! I can't wait to explore the rest of the alphabet!
