Janie, there is a click-link to the pattern on the website with its picture. Here is a direct click-link to the pattern:

I would like to get it, but $12 seems a little pricey to me.

On this page, you can actually see how the pieces are layed out. Looks like straight frames to me. It seems like you make a couple of rows of each variation, going from mainly color with a little white to increasing your white pieces until you have the pattern inversed, so mainly white with color. http://www.bonjourquilts.com/diamonds-in-the-deep/ Doing a google search of this pattern and clicking on the image tab gives you pretty cool color variations that people have posted.

My reaction to that pattern was the same as your husband's and so I purchased the pattern. I have it in my "must make" notebook. It is gorgeous.

I purchased the pattern, and so far have cut out all of the pieces. If I would have written the pattern, I probably would have strip pieced at least the first few sections, but that's just me. It really took me several readings through to figure it all out - but I seem to not be as well able to follow patterns as I used to be. I'm not old, I'm not I'm not I'm not! LOL

I'll keep you all posted - hopefully I'll have some piecing done soon.

Thank you so much for the link. I just ordered the pattern!
