I thought I would share with you my first attempt at a celtic design. I have done this in creams and greens. It is also the first time I have made my own bias binding to outline the design. But I think it worked well. The dots just seem to position themselves were they are - great.
I am planning to make some more and perhaps make them into a quilt. It is on a 16" background, so wouldn't need many to make a decent sized quilt.
Hope you all like it.

Sorry will need to experiment with the brightness, can't really see the colours of the fabrics. Will try and update later.

Very well done! I haven't done celtic designs yet, but I do have a book on it.

I love that block. Great job and looking forward to seeing you finish a whole quilt with those blocks. It will sure make a beautiful quilt. TFS
