    Thank you all. for those who expressed an interest in making this quilt, the actual construction is fairly simple. I used a standard maple leaf in 6", 9" and 27" (finished size) I drew up 5 or 6 variants on QuiltPro before I found the one I used.Feel free to download the picture and use it as a guide. If you have not done that before, right click on the picture, go to "save picture as", click on that and save it. You can then print it to use as a guide. Remember, the quality of the fabrics and their vividness are cruxial to the effect. I collected these fabrics for about a year before I made the quilt.
