I agree with Laurie--Log Cabin

I agree with your reasoning.

'Back in the day', they used to print quilt patterns in the newspaper. So they would've been free asisde from the cost of the paper.

I would say it would be one of the "Quilting Personalities" that began marketing their patterns during the '70s resurgence and continues today, so Eleanor Burns or Nancy [sorry last name escapes me, "Sewing with Nancy], Kaye Woods, Fons & Porter, Jinny Beyer someone like that.

I would agree with this one!

My vote is for the log cabin quilt.

I would vote for the log cabin -- the Eleanor Burns book has been very popular and has had several printings.

I tried google with no luck. I did try www.quilthistory.com didn't find it there either. Interesting searching though.
