Thanks for explaining how you did this! I showed the photo to my son yesterday, who has just become interested in leather work and is creating his own designs and then making them: little wallets, pouches, coin purses, other "container" items, without patterns other than those in his head. Not at all the same as what you're doing, but I wanted to show him your incredible "quilt doodle" design and art. He was wowed.
