The pattern is cathedral window. Are you asking about the fabric inside the windows?

If she can't find that exact fabric, she can always use the part that is done as the center of the quilt and add on around the edges until it is big enough.

I agree with the guesses so far - Cathedral Window.

Well, here's a tutorial on this board:

This one is machine stitched.
There are various methods for creating these, so you may also need to do some research on the internet.
If you are adding blocks, I would carefully take one apart to determine the size of the backing square and the method used. Good luck.
