Quilt Design's Affect on Industry

I saw the Sebastian rug above (C) when thumbing through the Fall 2009 Crate and Barrel catalog. It caught my eye because it's so quilt-like. The description reads: "Sebastian Rug - A modern quilt at a contemporary art show inspired these graphic gridded squares punctuated with freeform, concentric circles." I've seen this design a lot and am not sure where it originated. Interesting.
