Ok so i have been searching and i seem to be cutting up short.
1. i picked up some fat quarters from one of the LQS. The rough drawing im linking below.. i cannot seem to find the name of the pattern at all. it is that pattern i would like to use for the fat quarters. So does anyone happen to know the name of this pattern? and how many fat quarters would be possibly needed for a throw/lap size one?
I currently have 12 fat quarters and will be going back for more.. need be or not XD

Here are the colors i have so far

this is the example. This is what each block looks like just with the colors changing. Each block would be the same like this though.

I think the pattern is a Square in a Square, but I am not sure. Someone else will know though. Great colors BTW.

I thought so too but when i searched it was bringing up a somewhat similar but differnt pattern. Actually in searching i did find a pattern (yellow brick road) that could work with just 12 fat quarters (with others for borders. We shall see :D
And thank you! i love the colors and cant wait to see them turn into a quilt!

Turning Twenty would look good in these colors too.

MrsToastyKoasty 06-23-2011 05:14 PM

It is similiar to Boxed Squares http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-49268-1.htm , but with a much larger square. It is also similiar to a Happy Block http://www.maryquilts.com/happy-bloc...-heartstrings/ that I made when I was on a different forum.

Your fabrics are beautiful!! My favorite colors!!!

It might look pretty if you find a couple of fabrics that have both purple and green in them

Those colors would look great in the Around the World pattern too.

How bout check out moda bakeshop, there are lots of free patterns over there. Summer squares quilt would be great, Boxwd in is almost the same as your diagram, or add some white and make Sweet Menagerie 9patch, a beautiful pattern, Just some thoughts.

I'd call it "framed squares" Using "framed squares" to search, I came up with a "Little Framed Squares" pattern that's similar to what you're wanting (no affiliation with pattern or store - just the first to pop up)

Edited to add: Can you draft out a pattern yourself? This would be an easy one to do.
