Check out "The Bias Pomegranate Quilt" pattern (and others) by Hoopla. Also check out patterns by Karen Witt and Bonnie Blue Quilts.

I went looking for patterns from Woodlawn plantation, built by George Washington's son-in-law for his bride, Washingtons's stepdaughter. I was disappointed to find the name of the group has been appropriated by someone who sells modern patterns but no books with Nellie's original patterns. Does anyone know of any publication of the quilts made by Nellie Custis? I've seen several articles and the patterns you are looking for are duplicated by the group. They are sold to help fund the museum.

Sentimental Stitches has had a few free BOM's using patterns taken from old quilts. Not sure if it's what you want but check them out.

Elly Sienckiewicz comes to mind. I probably have her last name spelled wrong but she was a big name in Baltimore Album quilts when I first started quilting.

Edit- I just checked and her books are on Amazon

Charlotte is on the money. Barbara Brackman's Encyclopedia of Quilt Blocks is awesome. I checked one out at my local library before trying to find a copy online. Jinny Beyer's Quilter's Album of Patchwork Patterns is another amazing one. It may be in your local library system, as well. Best of luck finding the best fit for you.

The DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution) Museum has wonderful Baltimore Quilt Patterns for sale. I bought the Mary Simon pattern some years ago. Very detailed and gorgeous.
