Interesting to study it and wonder why all 5 of the blue center, red point blocks are the same BUT there are 5 different arrangements in the 11 blue point blocks --- look closely. See close-ups of 3 of them above.
From the Quilt Index: a pattern clipping from the newspaper in 1934.
I also like the fearless use of the burgundy border with the tomato red (very large scale polka dot) in the blocks. A rather clash-y combo it is and yet quite fabulous!
If you'd like to make one, I found a pattern on the blog about designer Nancy Cabot http://nancycabotsewalong.blogspot.com/2013/08/dolly-madison-star-quilt-block.html
