Need help finding a picture posted in QB a few weeks ago.
A few weeks ago there was a beautiful quilt done in batiks. They were rectangles surrounded by black sashing. If I remember correctly there were two rectangles (with the black sashing making the block square) going in one direction and two in the other direction. The pattern resembled the rail fence but with wider pieces and only using two of them. Don't know if I described it correctly but I simply loved this quilt and would love to know the name of the pattern. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks I tried to do that but after going back 6 pages I still couldn't find it so I thought I would ask. Thanks so much for trying.

Was it on QB? I saw and bookmarked this photo from google. Think it came from Pinterest.

The block consists of rectangles (the focus fabric) and black strips on two opposing sides. So let's say your focus block is 6"x4", and then you add 1" black to either side (I'm talking finished here, not allowing for seam allowances). You'd have a 6" square. Make two of them and set them side by side, placing one fabric focus vertical and one horizontal. Since they are both squares, they should match up nicely. The rectangular focus fabric only makes it look like the blocks are different sizes. Hope that makes sense!

Oh my goodness, dear THIS IS IT!!!!. Now that I have the picture I was wondering if anyone knew the name of the pattern? I don't want to duplicate it if it is an original design but I thought it was gorgeous.
Thanks to everyone for your help.
