If you are pleased with the look, as most of us are, to heck with the catalog.

Experience is not the issue. It's simply seeing squares and triangles laid out as you like. Graph paper does the calculations.

I like it. In fact I copied your pic. No need to buy a pattern if you can duplicate it yourself. I'm with you.

My vote says to keep on going because it's a job well done already, even if it is with the use of scraps. Thanks for sharing and will look forward to seeing your next project.

I would most definitely finish it! Looks good and no one would know you did not have the pattern.

I just took the class to do the Labyrinth and you are close, though not exact.
it is NOT all HST and blocks...that is just the illusion!
the only requirement for this pattern is the one thing you DO have...HIGH contrast!
