Here are all 15 blocks but I can see that I need to rearrange them. I was too tired to go back down and do it last night after I got the photo loaded into the computer. I have been searching my quilt block books and haven't found this block yet so I still don't know the name of it.
My childhood friend and her husband came to see me yesterday and we had such a good time. She is a history buff so we ate at the Bull Moose Bar and Grille which is a Pullman dining car used by Teddy Roosevelt. Then we played in my basement for awhile.
Today I am going for my post op check up for my eye. I hope it is the last dr. visit for awhile.

I don't know the name of the quilt block either but it is nice, I like the arrangement. It kind of looks like a "windmill" type of block.
That quilt is going to be so nice! I am dubbing the block "Seeing Stars at the Windmill" I thought windmill the first time I saw it too.
I think it looks a little starry too, very pretty! Good luck with your appointment!
The blocks look great! I am in agreement, it is definitely some type of windmill/pinwheel block. Hope all goes well at the doctor's visit today!
Good luck on the checkup. I'll be thinking about you. The quilt top is looking good.
I don't know the name of this pretty block either. Has a lot of movement.
Good luck with your eye appointment.
Hope that everything goes well with the post-op..
and it is your last visit. Wish I had your energy ,
another creation with the Christmas fabrics.
Hope you receive good news today.
Take a look here:

It seems to be set in a combo with another block.
I always look first at Quilter's Cache.
I hope your dr. visit goes well and you get good news! I'm not sure if I have seen this block before or not. I think it is a combination of two blocks.
Hoping for a good report from the eye doctor. I know you are beyond ready for things to be ok. I would be.
They look wonderful.
I hope this is the end of doctor visits for a long time for you. You've had enough this year!!
Lovely Christmas quilt. I went onto the website mentioned above: http://www.quilterscache.com/F/FriendsStarBlock_Page3.html and it does look like that's the block. Love it!
Good luck with this doctor appt and hopefully it's the last one:)

Whatever the name of the block may be, it's a beautiful Christmas quilt!
I hope your appointment goes well and that you're done with doctors for quite a while.
Your quilt gets me in the Christmas spirit.
I too, am hoping you get a good report from your eye Dr. today.
I love that pattern for your Christmas Quilt. Still am in awe of those small triangles, working into that grand design.

Those blocks are so pretty! I love that they look difficult, but are just half square triangles. Believing with you for a good report!
Hope your appt went well! Can you tell me what the size of your HST's were and the unfinished size of the block?
Love this block--it has so much movement--very pretty...good luck on your (hopefully) last Dr. visit...Julierose
Hope the Dr visit went well. Have fun rearranging the blocks!
I hope the post op check went well. I'm sitting typing this on my iPad in an overly chilled motel room -- mum has her second cataract operation tomorrow. Time to adjust the temperature on the air-con! Take care.
Good luck with your follow up. Hopefully you wont' have to go back for a while. Love this setting and the prints look so great together.
I like your Christmas quilt. I also hope your eye follow-up went well. I am sick of doctors also and luckily do not have to go back until January. The book you talked about yesterday looks interesting especialy if he was a needlepointer. It is interesting that very few people now do needlepoint. When I was younger I taught many needlepoint classes and haven't picked it up in years. Maybe that should be my new project for next year.
