The pattern for the round quilt is called: Bergello in the round. Only problem I had was trying to figure out what to put in the center. When done there is a hole about 5 inches round.

One really wouldn't need to purchase a pattern. Just draw a wedge on heavy paper, start at 1 inch wide and draw from that 2 feet (at least) to 5 inches wide. Then mark off each inch. That is what my template looks like only in clear hard plastic. I cut my fabric in strips then sewed them together. Needed about 35 different graded in lights to darks (cools to darks) according to the book. Then cut the wedges from the large piece. stagger the template to the next color as you cut. sew all the wedges together. You will end up with a circle with a hole in the center. One could make this with larger strips using less various colors.
Make sense? if not let me know and I can have a go at explaining it again.
