No pattern. It's actually quite easy and a great use of scraps. No corners to match, either. I purposely made them different widths and lengths to be more realistic. On page 2 (I think it is) I described my method for adding the dark top to all the strips. The trick on the leaning books is not to let the bias cut side stretch as you sew it, and if you have 2 or 3 books leaning together, the bottom triangles are a little tricky. But generally, it's just alot of fun!!!
