I spent the entire day today trying to find a book I have to show how to make a quilt out of ties. The one I want looks like a sun with a circle in the center and the ties radiating from the circle looking like the rays. Does anyone have this pattern?

I have 2 books that use men's ties. PM if interested. I accept money orders, Paypal, or checks.
