It is the last pattern in the book "101 Nine Patch Quilts", by Marti Michell.
"Jack's Chain" is a fabulous pattern! So is "Yank's Chain" which is sort of a scrappy-esque Irish Chain kind of deal (nothing like being definite... LOL!). I made one eons ago (& sold it so I can't show you a picture of it) & it was kinda cool.
