I have an Asian SIL and have made him a quilt featuring a large dragon. Made their third child a Yin Yang of 1" (finished) squares, all sorts of different reds (but all seriously red) and all sorts of different blues. He uses a business logo which has yellow spinning out from the basic yin yang. He told me it represents energy. Anyway, instead of ending the design within a circle I let it go out to the corners of the square quilt, but all those little squares had something fun on them (Big Red the dog, butterflys, lots of little animals, flowers, simple designs, etc.
Now you have me wanting to make another Asian quilt. Yours is absolutely beautiful! Both sides!!!!
