I like https://quiltsby.me/projects better then Pinterest.
I don't know what it is about Pinterest but I agree, it's not as enjoyable for me as a quilter as it once was maybe because of all the advertising? I think that I agree with you that I'm enjoying https://quiltsby.me/projects more than Pinterest these days.

Love this quilt! I would return to the "Quilts by Me" website. At the bottom of the page there is a 'contact us' hotspot. Send MSQC a note and ask if there is a way to contact the person who posted the image.
Don't know if this helps, but when I'm trying to draft a pattern, I look for sizing clues and make some assumptions.
My main assumption is that the patches or blocks finish at a 'normal' measurement, like at a half inch or an inch measurement.
If you look at the picture & assume the binding is 1/4", then all the border strips finish at 1". This makes the pumpkins about 4.5" tall, add an inch for the stem and an additional half inch of cream for the separation and you have a 6" finished block. These look square to me.
This makes the center square finish at 12", so the center cream square finishes at 6".

totally cute project and great site. I went through my quilt photo files last night and deleted 475 photos.
I'll never make those types of quilts again, and now its easy to look at the ones that have real potential.
