    Hi Everyone!! Alaskasunshine asked me for the info on where the pattern is. It is the Dec 2009 American Patchwork and Quilting magazine.

    When making it, the blocks are fairly easy, but you have to follow the photos to place the blocks to get the effect. I ended up making a copy of the photo and numbering the places where the blocks go to get the pattern right. You'll notice that every block has twin, and they have to be placed in the right place to get the square, square look.

    I love how it came out, too. Hope you find it as easy as I did.

    The pattern is called Illusion in Neutrals.

    Wow! That will be one lucky coworker that wins your beautiful quilt. I'm sure it will be a hit with all of them and will make the ones that don't win very envious! Love the fabrics you chose. I guess I'll have to look for that magazine.
