Here's the link again - maybe this one will work. Although it is a bit different as previously mentioned.

Cut strip sets shorter as needed for the end parts.

I've usually seen it done in 3 colors, 1 dark, 1 medium and 1 light. One column is dark + light, and then one column is medium + light.

I agree with how Gale did it, except I think they used 10.5" strips, not 12.5" in the picture. This is a convenient length as well, as you should be able to get 4 strips from the width of your fabric (or a jelly roll strip).
To align the rail fence part and the square part, see how in the lower right-hand corner of the picture, there is a little set of 3 squares below the first square-in-square? This is a 2.5" strip of one of the big rail fence strip sets. Attach it below the first square-in-square, and then everything should line up. I hope that makes sense!

You know, I think you're right-now that I look more closely it does look like 10.5" strips. Because the part of the strip unit beyond the square blocks seem to be squarish, so that would make them 2" (2.5" cut).

If you don't find the pattern, I could draw you a pattern. I draw patterns when I can't sew, I use the challenge to work on my math skills. It looks simple enough for me to do and would only take me a couple of days to work it out. Pm me if you need to, and I will get started right away.
