It doesn't bother me to come up with quilting ideas anytime anywhere. It's usually very pleasant! I decided I need to take drawing paper with me to sketch my ideas when I go on a trip next time! Save those ideas! :-)

I was watching the NOVA series on PBS this week and they had an updated report on Fractals, along with some history. It was a fascinating program (as usual).

Anyone heard of a fractal quilt pattern?

Some links and an explanation. I going back to look at the pretty pictures.
