Somewhat based on the Matrix module. Taxonomy Matrix is a bridge between taxonomy and a CCK Matrix field. It can be used to create a matrix of selections based on 2 selected taxonomy categories.
Using CCK, add a new Taxonomy Matrix field. The admin interface will ask you for the category to use for row headers, and the category to use for column headers.
Colors & Patterns would give you something like this:
| Blue | Red | Purple | Yellow | |
| Solid | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] |
| Striped | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] |
| Dotted | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] |
| None | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] | [ ] |
It will also keep the basic taxonomy terms of the node in sync with the matrix. So, a node had "Striped"+"Blue" checkbox selected, "Blue" and "Striped" would be active terms for the node.
