Default Looking for an angel block pattern

Here it is, the last day of November and Christmas is now 25 days away. My daughter would like a 30" x 36" wall hanging and she collects angels. So, I've looked in all my quilting books and I don't see an angel block anywhere. I'm not a good google searcher .... that got me frustrated. I'd really like to get busy and get this done in a hurry so it needs to be fairly simple. I figure I can do 3 angel blocks and alternate them with 3 pieced blocks.... or, perhaps someone out there has done something with angels that you could snap a picture of so I can get inspired.

You all have always come through for me with wonderful suggestions...... so HELP!! Does anyone know of a site that has some cute angels?

​What technique are you looking for pieced, appliqué, paper pieced?

I really like paper pieced but would consider other styles, too.

I did try quilter's cache but haven't tried fatcat.... I'll try that one.

Thanks

Found this one:
http://www.creativequiltkits.com/the...-with-you.html
There is a really nice one called Christmas Tree Angel on http://www.bonnetgirls.com but for some reason my computer will not allow me on the site. (Dh is going to look at my virus scan later.)

To search for yourself, try going to http://www.google.com and search on "angel wallhanging" or something similar, then at the top click on "images". That will give you a lot of photos of different ones. Click on one if it interests you and you can visit the page it came from.

Quilter's Warehouse has a few angel patterns:

Here is a paper pieced one:

Here is another one that you can print:

I think this is the same as the first one I posted and you can buy it for $3 at craftsy:

I love, love, love my angel block that I sketched from a book eons ago. If I could take pics, I'd send you one. It's real simple, has an appliqued head on a very simple block.

Wild Rose Pastures: Roosters and Angel Quilt
wildrosepastures.blogspot.com - 1200 × 1600 - Search by image
I had two extra angels who didn't really fit in the main quilt, .*********************************

Google the angel quilt block site where they show bunches of pics. Scroll down a good long ways. You'll find a block that has a beige angel and a gold angel. The quote above is what I got when I clicked on the angels. These are set square, but mine is on point and the skirt on mine is bigger. VERY QUICK TO MAKE.

Go to her blog and do a search for ROOSTERS AND ANGEL QUILT----------several pictures down you'll see the angel I have.
