help needed to identify a quilt pattern

help i need a name for this block 
This is 1930s-1940s Made from feed sack material.  I am trying to help a neighbor who wants to know more about this quilt.  It is a family heirloom and all she knows is that it was hand pieced ( the blocks) then the blocks where sewn together with a machine.  Any help would be appreciated.  If you know of a link with info on this block please post it or if you think you know the name of it.

Thanks
sunshine

    According to Barbara Brackman's Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns (age 432, #3597), this is Friendship Garden, a Laura Wheeler quilt pattern.

    It is beautiful, too bad the pattern isn't available any longer.
