I think tesselated quilts are really cool and have seen some awesome ones...fun to play with a single shape and see what you can come up with.

What a great resource you have found.
Thank you.

Wow, this site is awesome! So many different ways to make quilts...he's a genius! At least he is to me! I never think about putting different blocks together to make a different design.

This is a website with an interactive tessellation generator that lets you design your own tessellations using squares, triangles, or Escher shapes in different colors. It's great fun. Try it! http://gwydir.demon.co.uk/jo/tess/tess.htm
