I found the pattern on YouTube https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yA-f2a3icIo. The link to the pdf pattern doesn’t work, but I downloaded it from Studio E fabrics website.
There is also a tutorial by the same lady for doing the inny outy pointy bits. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5hv53Eq44Uo
It was easy, once I’d done a couple of the points. The hardest bit was trying to scale up the templates on my printer!!
I used mainly fat quarters and metre piece I bought in Doughty’s January sales, but had to buy the backing fabric, which I also cut the binding from. I cut straight grain binding for the points as they were on the bias, and bias binding for the centre. My tip, watch the binding video before trimming around the points.
