I tthought the same thing till I studied the picture up close,whomever made the one in the picture used two very similar fabrics and in the drawing they use 3 different fabric so you understand they are different. It is a very nice pattern to do, although next time I make it I will use 2 close fabrics like the picture. Anna

They are the same. This quilt is such an optical illusion! ALL of the unpieced squares are the same fabric. They kind of fade into the background on the picture in the PDF file as some are framed with the darker fabric..and some AREN"T framed. The unframed ones can look different, but trust me, in this pictures they are the same. I have that issue.
That being said, you CAN change those fabrics. I just saw a post that asked if they could use this pattern as an I Spy. Brilliant!

I love this pattern. I would like to point out that it's easy to adjust. The pattern uses 6" squares, but I often use 7.5" if I'm in a hurry (fewer blocks to make). I cut the focus fabric at 8" (7.5" finished) and the striped blocks at 3" each (2.5" finished) or 2.5" for the sides and 3.5" for the middle, if you like a bigger middle strip.
If I sew the strips by width of fabric, I can get five 8" blocks out of a piece. It goes pretty quickly to make a lap-sized quilt or bigger.
