It looks like a Colleen Wise pattern, check her website or contact her. She does lots of 3d and interwoven patterns.

Beautiful quilt! I do see the triangle units everyone is mentioning. I think I need some time with my graph paper!

Must be an encyclopedia!

After following this thread, I got a copy from Amazon for $11.3 (including shipping). I'm wondering if lots of other people reading this thread bought all the less expensive copies! Here is the link again for those interested:

I would suggest doing a search on eBay using the ISBN, save the search, then periodically check Amazon and eBay to get when a more affordable copy comes up.

Hi, The pattern is Optical Illusion and it comes from the book "Strip-Pieced Quilts" by Maaike Bakker.
