Can you help me find this pattern?

It is precisely as catmcclure has deducted. So each block has one blade of a pinwheel at the top left, top right, bottom left and bottom right. If you want your large rectangle fabrics to be well distributed in your quilt and if you want the blades of each pinwheel to match (as in the pattern photo) you must set it all out on a design wall and are then dealing with a really fussy assembly process to make sure you sew each piece in the proper place (and the blades going the proper directions) to acheive this.

I stumbled across this quilt image (the multi colored pinwheel) and can't find the pattern. I have followed the links and they don't lead to the quilt pattern. It looks like maybe it was for sale at one time but maybe not anymore. Does this look familiar to anyone?
I am intrigued by how this would be pieced.

I received the pattern and it is constructed keeping the large rectangle as one piece and essentially "sashing" it with half of the pinwheel blocks. There is absolutely no directions at all as to how to keep your pinwheels all the same fabric so I can only think that the entire quilt would have to be put on a design wall before any pieces are sewn together.
The color layout did vary row by row but all blocks in each row were the same.
