To each his own, I am glad we each has the option of doing our own thing. I don't care for them but I can tell they take a lot of work. I don't think I could see the colors well enough to do that kind of work. I have a hard time with a scrappy quilt.

I was at our LQS yesterday and they were talking about Fractals. I may look into the quiltuniversity.com class. Have any of you ever taken any of their classes?

I'm fairly certain I don't have enough time left on this earth to accomplish something like that. pretty impressive look tho. Gives me a headache trying to figure out that many pcs. kudos to you that can.

This is definitely the type of quilt that most appeals to me. I always have a fractal calendar and love puzzles. My first book of quilt patterns was 3D eye poppers but I still haven't ventured into making one of them.
Waiting to see what this group creates!!

Thanks for sharing-----had not seen them before. A beautiful work of art for your wall but certainly not traditional. Bookmarking this one!

As a math person I have always been fascinated by fractals and the first little original quilt I embarked on was a fractal design. My friends all know that I am fascinated by geometric shapes and designs so I guess that explains a lot.

These links show the most unbelievable work! I would love to do that with a couple of buddies or a class. If I started one right now I am pretty sure that I would end up with another UFO. My problem is I want to try it all! :D :D

Meanwhile, I would love some feedback on the Quilt U classes. I'm pretty sure that I've heard them mentioned here before.
