my grandmother made what our family called 'crazy quilts' which i still have a few... they look similar to the patterns you use (minus the plates)...
my grandfather, besides being magistrate of the small SC town they lived,
also owned a men's clothing store, which gave my grandma supplies of fabric used to make men's suits... for her crazy quilts... she made some
very 'masculine' patterned quilts of tweeds, gabardines, and worsted wools ...
prized possessions of mine ❤️
