This latter design is quite a popular one in the Middle West, where it is known also as "Star Flower."

The best known are "Boxed I's," "Capital I," "Double Z," "Four E's," "Fleur-de-Lis," "Letter H," "Letter X," and "T Quartette." Inanimate objects, particularly those about the house, inspired many names for patterns, some of which are quite appropriate.
