I have that exact tile inset by my front door and look at it every day and wonder the same thing. Just haven't taken time to sit down and draw it out. Someday!

Ask the tile people at the home improvement store for the patttern information. Someone has to have a pattern for the tile setters to go from to make this design.

That will make a beautiful quilt. I can see it now, but I'm not good with picking colors. It is a great pattern. Would love to have several of the stones in my yard.

Almost all the pattern is "even" except the outer ring. I would draft the outer ring--make the pieces larger until the points of the star touches a space between the outer curved sections. Then it shouldn't be too hard to draft and make the pieces fit. Good luck and let us see the finished product.
