You are correct

It is similar to the Topsy Turvy 3 yard quilt, but still different. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/topsy-...9083408181352/

Both of those are darn close (esp the etsy one - while the other one uses 2.5" strips it starts with an 8.5" square which mathematically you could not cut the out the strips and the main sq from a layercake). .... LGJARN52 - you could easily go with one of these with the somewhat of the same look. Great job OurWorkbench!!
