Default crayon color quilt pattern

I saw a quilt made that the crayons were in the shape crayons. Now I can't find where I saw it. Any help would be appreciated in finding this pattern. Than you.

Several have been posted on QB after I posted a picture of mine. If you put Crayon Quilt in the search box several should come up. One with the child's name was just posted today by CoventryUK under the title, Fun with scraps!

I made mine from a pattern that was an extra pamphlet insert with a quilt magazine. Don't remember which magazine.

This is the pattern that started the crayon craze. It was a free insert with American Patchwork and Quilting magazine in the October 2014 issue 130 The name is Color Me Happy and it was longer and skinnier. I reduced the crayon length and increased the width of my strips. There are many fun examples on QB of people making the pattern their own. I will post of picture of mine and you can cut your scraps to the width you decide is best for your scraps. [ATTACH=CONFIG]541867[/ATTACH]

Someone pinned mine to Pinterest so you might have seen it there. I LOVED your addition of the name on the side and every one of the different crayon quilts posted to QB were wonderful!

I found a 'Crayon' pattern in a magazine about ten years ago that showed the shape of the eight basic crayons and is just beautiful. I'll have to check which magazine it was because it was the nicest looking pattern I have seen. I purchased all the fabrics I needed and never did get it put together so I'll go check out the tote (pattern is with the fabric). Bueniebabe, I will pm you later.
