I quilted one of these recently. My customer hand pieced it. Her color placement made the quilt look quite different. She never did tell me where she found the pattern. Here are links to my posts about it:

You did an amazing job of making this quilt sing. Thank you for sharing with me. You made that quilt come alive.

6" wedges...seems like that could be machine pieced, but how to put together into top? Must be a pattern somewhere....I like the one named princess pea....the one quilted so beautifully, in my eyes, is just too busy, like the control of the green one......just me..

Do an Amazon search for "Drafting & Design Simplified". There is a great section on how to draft hexagons and all the different shapes you can come up with using them---including this "kite" shape. Super fun and easy!

No, can't say that I've seen that exact pattern. It is very exciting and I can picture making it in a variety of colors.
