help...need name of pattern
 

Its kinda a triangle ( for you jewelry lovers more of a trillion shape)
You put in the windows and the sides fold over.
Ive seen it done in a circle, you put in fab and fold over the rounded edges and it forms a square...but i want need the triangle. Thanks...everyone here seems to know where to find anything

This site has cathedral windows in all sorts of shapes. Hope the one you want is there.

Helps to add the site (LOL): http://ajpadilla.com/tutorials/cathedral-windows

Cathedral Windows has 4 turned in wedges.

I think you're thinking of Joseph's Coat


Here's one (and I'm going to look for a gorgeous one I was following on another blog):

Thankyou...but thats not the one either.

Is that the shape you end up with?

Why wouldn't this work the same, except instead of turning over the sides in quarters, you did it in thirds?

I'm vaguely remembering something about 2 circles, sewn right sides together , leave an opening, turn inside out, and then turn over the edges and sew them down.

The turn-down sides on the front would be fromthe back fabric.
I think the batting was included as well, so it was like birthing the block.
The batting was a triangle, not the whole circle, so you didn't have any excess bulk.
It was a QAYG version.
You then zigzag the triangles together (sort of like EPP).

eta: LOL! I don't know if that made ANY sense at all.

I think josephs coat is it!!! Thankyou everyone

But it's all applique - visually, though, it looks like what you want.
At least I think it did.

Here's the blog I was talking about:
I have such a thing for color wheel gradiations - I just can't get enough of them.
I LOVE her version - she's hand quilting it now.
Karen used Inklingo for her templates. Not a bad idea.

The triangles are not "inserts" though, they're the background fabric.
You make the blocks, and after you connect a few, you add more applique petals to connect the pattern so it appears seamless.

This is beautiful! Especially done in batiks. Not sure if this is what you are looking for.
