    nice fussy cutting. Looks like a tapestry or woven rug.

    It reminds me of a beautiful magic carpet.

    Oh my goodness - thank you all for such nice comments! This quilt top still needs to be quilted, so I don't imagine being really finished until this summer.
    Many fabrics were from stash. The blue background fabric was about 12 years old and had started to fade at the crease line, so it was time to stop storing it and use it. I had to cut off the faded sections with the cutting process. A few of the fabrics were specific for the pattern and are most likely very hard to find now.
    Borders around 12 blocks were fussy cut.
