Is this a traditional quilt pattern? I took a picture of it at a quilt show. It's called "Black and White" and was made by James A. Niles. I posted it on my blog with the rest of the pictures I took at the quilt show, and now a reader of my blog wants to know where she can get the pattern. I have no idea if it's a traditional pattern or if it was designed by Mr. Niles. He doesn't seem to have a website.
Any help would be appreciated.

Looks like a six pointed star. They put two "logs" on the end of each diamond, and trimmed to maintain that particular diamond shape. You could make that any size using a 60 degree diamond template and lots of work LOL

Use google to search the person's name and add the words "quilt show" or "_ _ _ (which show it was, eg Detroit) quilt show"
It might have been written up somewhere in a newpaper or quilt magazine and give you a lead on where to look.
