Comments
I started this quilt at a Quiltsmart Lone Star workshop at Honey Bee Quilts in Austin,TX. Then I spent about 4 months designing and sewing the setting squares and borders. It ended up larger than I had initially expected, but I was happy with the design. Overall, I think it looks like a floor mosaic which could be found in an exotic desert locale!
