PS - Assuming that this is the quilt you are looking for - I found the "pattern", such as it is, to be interesting. It explains that pioneer women called these utilitarian quilts "blizzard quilts" as they were done up quickly with what they had on hand as blizzard season approached.

Also interesting was the note at the bottom of the instructions, saying that the pattern was from a list serve group called Quiltopia. Anyone remember that? From the very early days of internet, I think - my memory of it is very vague.
