I stumbled across this quilt image (the multi colored pinwheel) and can't find the pattern. I have followed the links and they don't lead to the quilt pattern. It looks like maybe it was for sale at one time but maybe not anymore. Does this look familiar to anyone?
I am intrigued by how this would be pieced.

looks to me like if your pinwheel is say a 5" finished block, then you would need a 2 piece strip block that finished at 5" next to it and also below the pinwheel, and a 5" block next to that strip block. This makes the section a 4 block section.
Clear as mud right?? Maybe someone with a visual can help you. I can't draw it on my computer but I can see it in my minds eye.

So you think those large rectangles are not a continuous piece of fabric but actually 3 pieces?
DebraK, wow, how did you do that? I am always impressed with internet sleuths skills.

Looks like a variation of a 9 patch. The 4 corners are pinwheels, the middle is a solid block, the middle top, sides, and bottom are pieced strip blocks. As long as all 9 pieces are the same size it would turn out right. Pretty quilt.

Have you looked through all the patterns at http://patternspot.com/ ? It looks like a place for different designers to sell patterns.
At first thought, I was thinking it was a 9-patch with the pinwheels in the corners. You might be able to piece it like a 9patch, but the longer pieces might be easier done as a bar. But if you piece the longer pieces as a long bar, then the blocks are intertwined. In the photo, the bars don't appear to be pieced, they appear to be a single bar.
I'm stumped, unless the longer bars are pieced.
