A reference would be the Custom Rod Thread Book, by Clemens. I think the pattern is created as follows:

Layout:

Small diamond (will fill in center of cross)
Outer box (background color)
Inner adjacent box (Maltese Cross color)

Sequence:

Outer box - out
Inner box - in

Continue until inner box closes on small diamond.

Frank most maltese cross patterns I am aware of are actually cross wraps and not weaves. I havent seen a weave of one yet. You should check with Billy Vivona, he has a great pre book on cross wraps.

Frank,
I got your email.
I made a 59 X 59 thread Maltese Cross weave pattern and sent it to you in excel format.

If anybody else would like it just email me.
