This doesn't really answer your question but I looked at the sentimental stitches quilt. You could go to your library and find books about quilt patterns, choose the ones you like and make your own original sampler quilt. All our libraries have copy machines so you wouldn't have to check out stacks of books, just copy the patterns there. The only thing to watch out for is any distortion of the pattern when copied--make sure they're on the square. This would save a lot of drafting time.
