I somehow stumbled onto this image on the webpage and I am in love with this quilt. I love how the 9 patches on point border the quilt. Has anyone seen this in a pattern before? I would need pattern help to make the "on point 9 patches" work out in length with the rest of the quilt.

To calculate the size of the setting triangles for the border you can go to this website http://www.ctpubblog.com/2010/08/03/...ing-triangles/
They give a fairly simple explanation.
For those who wonder why they are using 1.414, it's because that is the approximate square root of 2. The length of the diagonal of a square is the length of one of its sides multiplied by the square root of two. This is all based on the Pythagorean Theorem.

Its looks like a 9 patch with the plain color being like an x on the block and then a plain white block. The borders look like its a triangle then the 9 patch and another triangle, its put together with a 45 Degree angle I made a border with the same type of slant one time.

I would say the interior of the quilt is a 9 patch and then a solid block, alternating. The border definately looks like the 9 patch on point --you can see the seam lines go across and form a "square" block.

Quilt pattern
It's a single Irish Chain in the center section, they are not on point in the center. A single Irish Chain is a nine patch block and a plain block, alternated. this one is scrappy...and I really like the on point blocks in the border.
The attached picture shows a scrappy Irish Chain.
This is one of my favorite patterns, simple to make, and can be very striking.
