Bonnie Hunt of Quiltville often posts pictures on her blog of patterns that she sees while on her world travels. Interesting tiles and brick patterns out there. Take inspiration wherever you can get it.

Hahaha!! One time my family and I were checking into a hotel, and I went..."(GASP!) Look at that pattern...what a wonderful quilt that would make!" pointing to the floor in entry of hotel. My DD went.."MOM!!" and turned bright red!! LOL It was very funny!!

I think that is funny that quilters see the patterns people think are just decorations.

Too funny! I work in a neurosurgery clinic. We go to another location on Wednesdays to see patients. They have new
carpet in the hall way. Square in a square!!! (Ugly colors though! Obviously not picked out by a quilter!!!)

Yes, I was on a cruise a couple of years ago - the tile pattern in the casino was beautiful - took photos of it - when it was closed - allergic to the smoke

I feel sorry for people who don't look around them and find ideas and inspiration in their every day world. Try it. It helps keep the mind active.

Yep - bathroom tiles, hotel hallways/lobbies, ancient mosaics... I think it is an illness. But a happy one.

Cheers, K
