    While in Canada in June, my bestie quilting g/f up there took me to a lovely quilt show. She would really like to make this quilt but we can't locate a pattern. I guess I should break down and but EQ7 but after just getting a long arm I should not push the envelope any further with my husband Anyways here is a picture of the quilt she would like to make. Any help greatly appreciated

    Even if you can't find the pattern, it seems like this quilt would be easy to duplicate.

    Looks like a pattern that you might find in a kaffe fassett book. Looks like his fabrics too.

    There are two listed on the Aardvark Quilts website... Domicile 48 x 60 $10, and Baby Domicile 36 x 48 $10. Just click on their listing for patterns then scroll down thru the pictures on the right.

    looks to me like a square topped by a flying geese unit, then padded out with background (sky) fabric. The flying goose is the same width as the square. So for the larger ones, arbitrarily decide that they are 6X6 squares. top with a 3X6 flying goose, When these are sewn together, they make a 6X9" unit, so we need to add 3" to pad it out to a 9" block so you would add a 1.5" strip of fabric matching the sky of the flying goose to either side. If you look at the quilt, all the sky/border fabrics are solid which blends this seam in.
    The dimensions I've quoted are finished dimensions. You would cut the square 6.5", the FG is 3.5 X 6.5 raw and the side strips would be cut 2X9. Should be able to figure out the smaller ones in the same way .

    If you can't find the pattern, houses are super easy, add strips to the side of a square or rectangle and snowball the corners for the large houses and do a 4 patch the same way making the houses half size. Voila, you are done.

    I just saw something similar yesterday when searching on Google. Not hard to make as PP mentions, just a square with a flying geese on top and 1" sashing on the side.
