Squares in a Triangle

 

Jane posted this mid-20th-century quilt top in the Facebook group
  Quilts:Vintage & Antique looking for a pattern name.
We were no help.
I did find relatives, however.

The theme is squares in a half-square triangle.
Classified as a two patch with a diagonal seam down the center of the block.
Jane's has six squares.
I found quite a range of dates on the idea, but no published patterns.

1860-1880? top
Three squares

1870-1890?
One square



15 Squares in some prints that look to be about 1910


Same time but 6 squares


10 squares from the mid-20th century
maybe 1960-1980?
