    Default Pythagoras' Lute

    I used the paper pieced pattern for the center, then expanded and added a border with more "stars" in it.



    I did an "all over" computer quilt design, and the stitching ended up going through the exact center of the quilt. Could not have planned that if I'd tried LOL!!

    What a great creation. Your border treatment is superb. This is a challenging pattern.

    What a cool looking design! I haven't seen anything like this quilt. Is it for you?

    zozee, I did not have anyone in mind when I made this quilt. Sometimes I get a bit attached to them in the process and then have to hang on to them for a while before I'm ready to send them to a new home.

    Beautiful! Pythagoras' Lute is on my bucket list. I like your idea of extending it from a pentagon to a "normal" quilt shape and size!
