Did you try contacting them and ask about buying the pattern?

I did call they only have it available as the kit.

I like the quilt as pictured and would consider buying it for my bed but I want to do a astronomy themed quilt for our bed.

ETA- I presume the designer of the Parsian Baskets Quilt kit is the same for this so I tried looking her up but her website is "under construction" and it looks like it has been for a while, maybe years.

As others have suggested, the quilt pattern is super simple. Try drawing it out on graph paper.

One set of squares is possibly 8" centers with 2" bordes (finished measurements) and the other squares are 4" with 4" borders. Then set on point, then filled in with plain triangles.

Then the borders which you could do as you pleased.

The pattern's been around. The old quilt I saw in the consignment shop had a few years on it.

How funny is this!! I found the quilt kit on their site today and absolutely fell in love with the whole thing. I don't usually buy kits, but I splurged on this one. Even bought backing fabric. Can't wait till it comes. It looks so simple and lovely, and 102" square at that price!!!

Try calling them to see if you can purchase the pattern separately.

There is a pattern on the Connecting Threads website that could easily be adapted to this. It is call Shortcake Pattern. You might want to check that out. It is basic the same thing Only the bigger blocks are a nine patch would you could just cut to one block. Hope this might help you.

I thought I would bump this to show the peiced top, done with the help of Dragonfly Nana who converted the pattern for me to a smaller size.

I agree!!! It certainly is worth a try. CT will often only offer the pattern in a kit but sometimes list the pattern for purchase seperatly.
