Is this the pattern? It doesn't look too hard to draft.

BQ by Debbie Bowles...best pattern I've found for things like that. I have made it several times. You cut 12 1/2" blocks...

The first one is a QOV quilttop I just finished, the second one is a t-shirt quilt I made for my grandson's graduation in June, the third is just some cute kids fabric I made up recently. You can use anything for this pattern & can make many sizes.

Another good pattern is on the Moda site; http://www.modabakeshop.com/2011/10/...nic-quilt.html Here's a pic of a donation quilt I just made up to turn in on Monday at our guild meeting.
