This is an unusually beautiful quilt with a wonderful expression of the Japanese culture as well as its fabric. I wish I could think of something to do to show off the Indian culture for the beautiful pettipoint photos I have, which are done on white background. I have 42 pictures that will end up being about 6 to 8" square each. I had thought of using the Attic Windows pattern and calling mine Seraglio Windows. The white is my problem. If I add the gorgeous colors of India, they may overpower the white background of the pictures. If I use the garrish flag colors (kelly green and orange) they also will overpower the wonderfully crafted pettipoint.
Mine is not an easy solution. I have been searching for ideas for years. If anyone has pictures of patterns that might help me, please post them.
