I did click on Bev's name. All it brings up are pics of 3 of her quilts. Clicking on ECHO pic will only take you back to the magazine picture. No download .

i designed it in EQ5 at 50x66 inches

and here is the rotary cutting for one block... half of the blocks will have to be flipped/cut in the opposite direction

the picture of the block above is not an actual representation of the block

There is a copy of the magazine for sale on eBay. What I see is something that could easily be done paper piecing. I think that Bearisgrey is correct. The blocks are rectangles with triangles on both ends. This block I drew 6" x 12". This is what I came up with using EQ5. If you are new to quilting or a beginner, I would certainly suggest you draw the block out and make it doing paper piecing. Your blocks may be more accurate.

maniac... i had first drawn it with 4 stripes. then i realized the orig quilt has 5 stripes... so i redrew it. my block is 6x16

I'm seeing repetition in those stacks of strips on the original, I think it's at least partially strip-pieced.

I saw this same quilt yesterday or today either in my email or on Facebook. I remember thinking it was something to check into but forgot. I'll try to find it, I'm sure it was a pattern link to buy the pattern I just didn't click to find out where.

Found it on Facebook, a post from yesterday from 24 Blocks website. I haven't checked that website but I had a subscription to Quilts and I found the magazine in my bookshelf.

It looks to me as if there are 5 strips of dark color and 3 strips of light color (or one strip equivalent to the sewn together width of 3 light strips)

Bearisgray says "I think the strips are pieced with five 1.5 inch colored strips and one 3.5 inch white strips"

I come up with the same thing, assuming the dark strips are 1.5".

I think 5 1.5" WOF strips are sewn together to form a strata. Another strip, maybe 3.5" WOF is sewn to the top and bottom. Then the blocks are cut from the strata at a 45* angle. The top and bottom is then squared off to make the rectangular block. Then another strata is cut in the opposite direction. Clear as mud??? Ann

After playing with this a bit more -

QuiltnNan says that she came up with a "finished unit" size of 16 x 6. I also came up with that. I haven't figured out how wide to cut the strips yet.

krafty14 suggests that the five narrow strips are pieced and then cut at 45 degree angles and a white triangle is sewn on each end. I think that makes sense.

If the rectanglular unit finishes at 6 x 16, I think the narrow strips are cut at (square root of 2 + 1/2 inch)
The square root of 2 is 1.414 and then add another 0.5 inch - that is 1.914 inches - so if one cuts a "scant" two inch strip, that would come out quite close.

The white strips are triangles that need to finish at 6 inches on their short sides. So - depending on your feelings about grain lines - you could cut squares at 6-7/8 inches and cut them on the diagonal -

Or cut a strip (square root of 72 + 1/2 inch)
8.48 + 0.5 inch = 8.98 inches -> I would cut strips 9 inches wide
