Linda Franz has an Inklingo package for this quilt.

When she came out with it about two years ago(?), there were scores of bloggers working on it.
Some of the fabric combos, especially those that went the Kaffe & Co. route, were stunning.
Here's a random blogger's work. Scroll down to see the different blocks:

I was just at a quilt show today and one of the shops was demonstrating this. I've done the Grandmother's Flower Garden before and I did buy a package of the 1" honeycomb pieces to put together.

I am working on a scrap one..... I've gotten 14 (inner) blocks done-- basically 3 levels out...i know most have 4 levels, but I am considering skipping the fourth or just making that my pathway/connection color. If I do 4 levels and then my pathway, this thing is going to get bigger than I wanted it to be. Each block is generally one basic color with different patterns/shades.
I wish I had the eye for the fancier patterns that almost look like a kaleidoscope, but I don't.....some I have seen online are gorgeous!

I just went to a quilt show and one of the vendors showed me how she did hers. She glued the fabric onto the cardboard pieces eliminating basting the fabric to the cardboard. Then you just sew the pieces together. It seems like a lot of LQS's around here are making them.
