Pretty elevator floor. Go for it.

We also were in Lowe's today , and I looked at those reproduction backsplashes and thought how it looked like a quilt. Too funny.

dkabasketlady - Who would have thought? A Disappearing 9 Patch for an elevator floor! The colors would make a great fall quilt. ;-)

Yes, I fired the contractor laying the bricks for my patio - years ago. And then, a couple yrs. ago I was replacing the 4" tiles between kitchen lower & upper cabinets. I had the tiles laid out & made the contractor install them in my arrangement. They came out great.

Of course it did! Who could do it better than a quilter? :thumbup: I am glad it worked well for you.

Go somewhere that has tile flooring (old churches for example)and see how that has been done. I see all kinds of patterns. Take a picture for reference.

Another place for quilt layout is your favorite crossword puzzle.
