I have tried something similar one time. It was a resounding failure🤣 I plan on trying again, though. Like you, I think of the challenge…
I am glad that you are going to try again….. I often re-do things several times before I am happy with them!!! When you do it, please send me a photo!!
Now that gives me something to chew on.
Based on previous experience, I expect that you will come up with a quilt in the next few days!!!
I do see inspiration in a lot of places, but alas, I’ve not made many. When I first started quilting many years ago (during the trace-your-template-and-sew-on-the-pencil-line days) I started noticing tile patterns in bathrooms. People thought I was crazy. I still look at quilts and try to figure out how to make them. “Find the block.” I love the freedom of quilt making – the whole world can be your quilt.
I enjoy your posts, Frances. Keep ’em coming.

Hi Mary Ann. Your story is the same as mine. I LOVE the freedom in designing quilts today. We can go so much further than we could back in the early days!! I do a talk for guilds called “Viewing the World Thru Quilt Colored Glasses” and it is about this exactly!!!
