That is an interesting pinwheel, isn't it? I'd help you out with a pattern but there isn't enough of a full view of the block to see how the corners are done. Maybe someone else will be able to help.
The designer, Camille Roskelley, called it "Dilly Dally". It's Thimble Blossoms pattern #152. She has several pictures of it on her blog including the one posted here. There is also a picture taken before quilting that is flatter and shows the construction more clearly. I don't have permission to repost so here's a link to that photo.

Paus - I think u pegged it. Look in the upper right corner at the red & blue intersection. That's the center of the edges of two blocks. Looking to the right you can see where the regular pinwheel would've met at the 'corner'. I think you are exactly right with your little triangle tip
Eta: I guess me & Martha were posting at the same time, lol. How cool to know the name & source!This message has been edited. Last edited by: toryam,
Mountain Laurel: I played with a little triangle on just the printed fabric and my mind wouldn't accept that a quilter would set themself up for that kind of minor work. Just didn't feel right, you know?
