Bataplai, I didn't buy a pattern. I have one of those block-a-day calendars and I searched through it looking for a block that was relatively simple. The main block is called Tic Tac Toe Variation. I then looked for a block that was a bit more intricate to give the quilt some interest. I chose Blackford's Beauty which I then modified in EQ7. I used EQ7 to design the layout and give me the fabric requirements. It also gave me the templates for the set-in triangles which was terrific. I think I can honestly say that I love EQ7!
Here are a couple more pictures of my quilt inspector (Caeli) who really thought I was making it for her!
