This is one of the best references that I have found for identifying
historical quilt patterns. It's got great pictures plus the most common
names for many types of quilts patterns. It is available from Amazon.com
for $22 new and $10 used:
Carrie Hall Blocks: Over 800 Historical Patterns from the College of the
Spencer Museum of Art, University of Kansas (Hardcover)
by Bettina Havig, Carrie A. Hall, Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of Art
(Corporate Author)
Good luck with your project.
