This is the block I found on pinterest several years ago when I made a wedding quilt using this block. There were no links to the pattern back then either, so I created one myself to get the same look. When you find this image on internet/pinterest now it links you to a steroid site. I don't understand why people take something so innocent and use if for something unassociated because this obviously has nothing to do with steroids. But that aside, I then took the pattern I had already created and modified it so two elephants were upright. If you PM me, I would be happy to share my pattern. And I wish I had a better answer and direction for the pattern of the elephants in the picture above.
I hadn't thought of that quilt as looking like sound waves (black and green one?) but it is modified log cabin block I found in my quilt program. I probably changed the center nine patch block a dozen times trying to add a different interest to the overall block but I kept going back to this one so I decided to leave it alone.
