I was given a lot of fabric by my SIL who used to sew her daughter's clothes. This woman never met a polka-dot she wouldn't buy, so I'm using a lot of dots these days. :lol: This one was from a workshop by Patricia Pepe using her "X-Block" ruler. It still needs to be ironed, and the blue fabric under it is for the backing and binding, but I was seeing spots and decided to stop for the night. Just don't look too closely at the intersections of the points. What an adventure they've been. :wink:

These are VERY bright colors. Doesn't show as clearly in the pic due to poor lighting. Quilt is for child at local battered women's center, so they should like it.

I can empathize with your dotty dilemma!
An optical illusion quilt with dots is doubly eye boggling!
I think it is wonderful!
