the curves?
I have never seen this before, but I know that doesn't mean it didn't exist before I saw it!! Anybody recognize it? Have a fantastic easy way I can do it? Know where I should purchase a pattern?
much love, all of you wonderful answer-ladies!

I drew the diamonds up with light, medium and dark blues. Thanks for sharing. I suspect the artist who made this simply added the outer ring to an existing pattern...but that's my opinion.

ok - I drew it! Keep in mind, I can't tell if the Christmas tree is straight! You guys are right, that four of those dark diamonds don't 'fit'.
I am *so* glad that the general consensus is that the diamonds are all the same size! wow, that would be too much for me! I used a compass to help track where the 'off' diamonds would be . . . can you see the lines?
Figuring out how to piece the mixed diamonds would be time consuming, and error prone I think. SO - I am off to research a carpenter's star!
my next step would be to transfer the (lone?) star to graph paper . . .
LOVE this board, you bunch of geniuses you!!
