Is it called something else?
I never could find a pattern for it either. I looked for months, but I absolutely loved the pattern, so I made my own. I just saw a picture of one on eBay once. I didn't know much about quilting at the time, as I had only been quilting for about 6 months. I just used all 2 1/2" squares, not even realizing that that wouldn't work since some were squares in it and some were half squares. Then, I didn't know how big they should be, so I sewed all the like 4 patches together and then decided on a size and cut them down. It was hilarious! Check out the pictures I took.

Some were 4" and some were mostly 3"

These are 12" blocks.

It's a crumb quilt that will have sashing - I've been working on 6" blocks that will be sewn together to make 11.5" squares. I recently finished 204 of the 6" squares and I thought I was done - but looking at yours I'm now figuring that I will need 20 more. :cry:

No pics - the last I knew, our camera wasn't working.
