    I bet one could make Fractals by doing thread art quilting upon a plain background fabric. Say...black fabric with off white thread and free motion quilting lightning streaks. Humm-m-m-m-m, think I will try that one day!

    yea sometimes but too busy to think of quilts all the time. What I always think of is shapes I could use as templets for quilts. I have a whole box of shapes from all kinds of odd sources.

    I notice floor patterns, especially in government buildings. Forget what the news announcer or actor is saying, I'm thinking ... that would make a really beautiful quilt.
