Filet diamonds and boxes pattern

Someone posted the picture below on a Facebook group for this diamonds and boxes filet crochet pattern. If anyone knows the origin of the pattern, it would be great to connect to the original. In the meantime, I'm deciphering the pattern from the photo and will share the notes and pattern once I'm finished and if the original can't be located for credit, etc.

Dee's Corner - CAL 2019 - Afghan Sampler

Welcome to Dee's Corner on Dot's Closet.

I'm sharing with all of you files, posts, pictures from my friend Dee Frazier. She runs a wonderful open and helpful group on Facebook called Dee's Crochet World. This is a closed group so if you would like to join, just ask - believe me it is well worth it!

Dee has come up with a fun Crochet-a-long (CAL) for 2019. Here is the info:

CAL 2019 - Afghan Sampler

DEE FRAZIER·MONDAY, MAY 6, 2019·

Starting May 2019 I will post patterns of 12 inch squares for a total of 20 patterns. We will make 1 of each pattern in your choice of colors. There is no finished Sampler at this time.

Patterns will be posted here. The patterns chosen will be ones with photos and easily explained instructions. Ask questions if you need help. Do in any order you like.

Most patterns I will get from Ravelry (will need to set up an account if you don’t have one) It’s a free site. The patterns will be downloadable pdf’s. Watch for hook sizes on each pattern! All patterns in Bold I have tried.
