Lightning Strikes

The Connecticut Quilt Project found this dramatic blue and white quilt
that seems to be one of a kind, made about 1900.

The owner who bought it for documentation knew nothing about it. She called it Streak of Lightning.



"What do people in Connecticut know about lightning?,"  asks a Kansan.

I have little to do lately but spoil the dog so I though I'd try to figure out the pattern repeat.


With little success.
Strips aslant?

Rotated--- one sees squares but how are they connected?

Usually if you go to the corner you can see the repeat block.

Well, I give up.
