mosaic



I received this calendar for Christmas and it is hanging in the kitchen. Each month has a full color quilt picture and full instructions on how to make it. Here is this months' quilt: Sunset Garden by Helen Frost and Catherine Skow.

When I turned the page for June, I was struck by the colors, it matches my kitchen!

Looking closer, I realized how tiny the squares are. Upon further inspection of the instructions, there are 2376 squares at 3/4" each, not counting the other size squares and borders. It reminds me of mosaic tile. Very interesting, may just have to try it!
