The basic design to me is "Trip Around the World" except that the design is not "on point". I don't know the actual definition of the design, but the ones I have seen have the design "on point". Please take a look at my picture and let me know if this is "Trip Around the World". If not, is there a name for the design?

After the exhibit is over, I am considering a remake of this quilt. I would like to open the squares and take the nylons out. Then use it as a quilt top for a regular quilt. The reason for the modification is that the quilt is just too heavy. Right now I am not using it for that reason. I have a trundle bed that it would be perfect for.
Any opinions on that? I know some people think it should be left as it is, but I think my grandmother would rather see me using it -- she was a very practical person. Some of the scraps in the quilt come from clothing sewn by my mother for our family 50 years ago, so it is definitely a treasure.
Thanks for letting me share this with you!
