    Peg, tell me:

    a) what's the difference between #2 and #3?

    b) what's exactly going on in the light brown border? Or is that just the print on the fabric?

    Love this idea ! Just the other day I came across a picture of wall tiles that inspired me to sit down and design a quilt~ inspiration comes from so many things ~ words, pictures, movement ~ and from all over the world !

    Just wanted to post an update.

    Some of the designs I found and the EQ design gal288 shared with me inspired me to try applying stack-and-whack/kaleidoscope to this quilt.

    I include below the original fabric plus the result which will be the center of the quilt.

    The original fabric

    The quilt's center using above fabric

    Looking good girl, like the sashing, getting a real tile feel. Keep up the good work, love the fabric and colors.
