I love it but can't find the name or a pattern. I think it may be called black diamond but that may not be right. Thanks!

Well, it's similar to the Carpenter's Wheel. Might be a variation.

I was looking at quiltuniversity and saw it in a class they're offering. I can't afford to take the class right now (even though its only $28) but I can start planning!

Very similar to a Carpenter's Wheel, but not quite.. usually a in a carpenters wheel, the outer band of diamonds or parallelograms are all symmetrical, those are not. I agree, it may be a variation. Very nice.
