The pattern I am using is called Windblown Shadows, from the book "The Thimbleberries Book of Quilts" by Lynette Jensen from 1998, but I am not doing the shadow effect of using a dark alternating block but rather constructing as shown in link.
Another pattern is called Spinning Flowers from Fons and Porter's Love of Quilting magazine (Nov./Dec. 2014).

Hope you like one of these patterns.
this is the windblown block from link above.
Thank you so much for posting this. I just ordered a layer cake with no plan as to what to do with it. I was watching M*QC tutorials and she was making a broken dishes block with 16 HSTs out of 2 layer cake squares and I realized I could do this Windblown block the same way. I really like this quilt.
