To the Ladies and gentlemen of the forum, any help you could extend would be greatly appreciated. My mom took this picture at the Reno, NV airport this weekend. I LOVE this quilt pattern but have no idea what it's called. If anyone knows and could tell me what it is and possibly where I could find it that would be wonderful. Thanks a bunch and have a great rest of the weekend. :)

It looks sort of like a glorified nine patch. It looks like the melons used in yours were a bit wider, but mostly the same. Here's a video on QuiltersTV about it.

It's a nine-patch variation, but I can't remember the name.

I would call it a Glorified nine patch and it is a variation of a nine patch.
I bought acrylic templates for this pattern online two years ago, and here's one of my sample blocks to show.

No name, but one of my first quilt projects and first UFOs was this pattern. Still have a stack of 'em...

Huh, I should get to the airport more often! LOL... Nice glorified nine patch. I have a pattern for this somewhere I bought off ebay.

The melons look wider because they're the same color as part of the nine patch, instead of 3 colors as in the video on quilterstv. Just another variation.
