Quilting

I borrowed this from my 1 June 2010 post.

What if I add to it with some petal-like shapes?

I think this makes a perfectly good quilt design for filling a square space.

What if I repeat it?

I get a border design.

What if I repeat 4 of them in the form of a square?

I get a design for a larger square space.

What if I repeat the square design?

I get a design for a larger border.

What if I repeat 4 of the original design in the shape of a cross?

I get a design that I can use to fill a diamond shape.





What if I repeat the cross and link it?

I get another border design.

What if I collapse the cross so that the two horizontal arms touch?

I get a design that I can use to fill a vertical space.








What if I alternate between the 2 cross designs and link them?

I get yet another border design.



The secondary shapes that appear when I use various combinations of this design are what appeals to me about this design.
