Thanks for the compliment. No computerized quilting. Believe me this is far from perfect! LOL. Some of my circles in the printed fabric surrounding the white triangles are rather lopsided and different sizes. Quite a few looked more like a hard boiled egg cut in half but those amazing eyes and brains we have been blessed with perceive them all to look similar as the human brain loves symmetry. The motif in white triangles I free hand marked. I found my center point of the triangle and put a dot in each one, then I drew that crescent shape from the center extending out to the 3 points of the triangle. I marked as I went. In one of the photos you can still see remnants of my blue wash away ink as I only spritzed, I will wash once the binding is complete. Again, each one of those motifs is not exactly the same as any other, like snowflakes, but we perceive them as looking the same. The border I also marked my center line and the arc to follow for the spine. The rest is all free hand with ruler work for the straight lines.
