WOW!! That is quite a quilt -- stunning! It must have taken a lot of planning to keep that pattern straight.

Well, one border was 1/4" too long - sooooo, I took the border and sewed two of the tiny stripes in the op-art border together. The border finished out the perfect size.

Absolutely love it (and the one in your avatar as well)!

Both patterns are my own - I've posted a tutorial on the Op-Art. The avatar quilt was drafted to look like an 1830 quilt in the Univ. Neb. Lincoln quilt collection - I worked from a photo (with permission) about 3" square.
