    Thank you ladies, now I can begin cutting and sewing with confidence -

    It is called Ombre Herringbone and the post by WTxRed indicated the following website: http://www.rileyblakedesigns.com/blo...rringbone-qui/
    which is the pattern I am looking for.

    I knew I could count on the expertise which is found on this QB, again thanks for your help.

    Thanks everyone. I definitely couldn't see the seams on my iPad.

    Donna Jean, I'm so glad that you posted this - what a cool quilt!

    Dottymo, it had me fooled, too. I thought they were diamonds, too! I'm so glad they are not! :-)

    I recommend that you try the tutorial from Missouri Star Quilts that Alleyoop1 just gave you a link to. I have not sandwiched mine yet, as another quilt took priority, but I made the quilt top and have the backing ready on my turq. and white chevron quilt that I made using this same tutorial. Goes together quickly and is a very easy pattern. I love how it came out. I will be giving it to a BFF for Christmas, so I am not in such a big rush to get it completed right away as I have some time yet. Mine will be a very large quilt, will fit nicely on top of a king size bed. I did not put a border on the quilt, as I like how it turned out without a border.

    Try Missouri Star Quilt Company. She has a tat on making the chevon quilt. Very simple too. Hope this helps.

    I see that it is made of HSTs - but I would try it in chevrons so there would be fewer seams.

    There is another method....I've seen on the net and in a magazine. Using 4 1/2 X 2 1/2inch rectangles . Two vertical and two horizontal. The horizontal under the second vertical. after all, it is just right angles . Sizes can vary.

    Definitely HSTs - but what a good example of how the eye can be fooled by the quilting lines.
