    I don't have an actual pattern, but I took picture as I went along. I am brand new at this so I hope it works.

    Cut your squares 11x11

    Cut your squares 11x11 - the number of squares depends on how large you want to make yor quilt
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246084[/ATTACH]

    Top flap are 11 x 5 1/2 cut at an angle toward the center
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246085[/ATTACH]

    Lay the flap and the lace on top of square
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246086[/ATTACH]

    Sew the flap and lace to the square at the same time
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246087[/ATTACH]

    Cut 1 1/2 strips of material
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246088[/ATTACH]

    Pin the 1 1/2 strip of material right sides together to the bottom of the first square
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246089[/ATTACH]

    Press open the strip the lay the bottom of the first square on the top of the second square right sides together and sew
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246094[/ATTACH]

    Continue until desired length
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246099[/ATTACH]

    I am making a large lap quilt so I made mine 5 squares in length and 6 squares in width
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246100[/ATTACH]

    If you want to stagger the envelopes add 11 x 5 1/2 piece material to top of first square then bottom of second etc.Any embroidery should be done before you add to the rows. Cut 1 1/2 strips of material the length of the rows. Connect them in the same manner as the squares
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246104[/ATTACH]

    Press open the strip lay rows right sides together and sew the length of the row. Continue adding rows untill desired width
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246105[/ATTACH]

    To frame the quilt cut strips of 4 1/2 material sew to top and bottom and then to the sides or visa vera
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246109[/ATTACH]

    Top piece sewn on

    That was my first try at posting something like this, I tried again and it worked out well but ran out of time to add the very last picture.

    Here is the final picture.

    This one just covers a double twin sized bed.
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]246115[/ATTACH]

    I added embellishment after it was put together like the bows on the flaps and the lace roses
