I hope I don't step on anyone's toes with my comments but as a child development specialist, I would not recommend this as a baby quilt pattern. A black and white with a color that pops is a good idea, but the optical illusion of the ball or bubble for a young child can be confusing as their brains and eyes develop. We want to soothe children with our quilts, entertain them with truck paths, textures and colors, or make them smile with comforting animals.
I most certainly agree that this is an interesting quilt but even a number of adults made comments about head aches and so on. This pattern can cause havoc in adult brains also. All in good humor but with a nugget of truth. For others this quilt is intriguing. If you find it intriguing, make the quilt but give to an adult or that wild and wonderful teen that loves Escher art. (I hear folks saying..."Who or what is Escher?" go searching online and find many examples of Escher work. Most folks have seen it and perhaps just did not know the name of the artist.) You could always make the quilt for yourself. :-D

I finally got the pattern and the foundation pieces and I saved it so one of these days I'll see about getting it translated and then maybe I'll give it a try and use it for a wall hanging. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay
