I was looking through some of my quilt magazines trying to find a new pattern. Don't know what, but I'll know it when I see it. For the fabrics I had in mind this isn't it. :(
Anyway it is from the August 2008 American Patchwork & Quilting magazine. It is an Edyta Sitar pattern and is a 3-d pattern. Not hard, just not what I want for a whole quilt. In the mag. it is a table runner.
I'll add this to my future scrap quilt/pillow pile!

It may not have been what you were looking for, but it sure turned out great!

It'll make a beautiful pillow, or a little throw or wallhanging.

What a neat idea...sort of like the 10 minute block....instead of the squares inbetween the blocks, looks like a large triangle folded and sewn the same way.....whoa!!! nother idea just popped into my head.

Yes! That's what it is, a folded triangle between blades/petals. It wasn't difficult, but it was longer than 10 minutes! There are sixteen blades in the block, so lots of chain stitching to do. I did have problems with the pattern for the center not being big enough and I had to cut a new one.
