With this quilt I challenged myself to expand upon my previous experiences making complex kaleidoscopes. First, I wanted to try making bigger, off-center kaleidoscopes--a major pattern drafting challenge. Second, I wanted to have my scopes to appear on a "whole cloth" printed background. This required piecing the squares containing the large circular scopes so they appear to be seamless. When the big scopes were done, the design was lacking something, so I added small, appliqued circles in black, white, and gold and was much happier with the overall appearance.

UPDATE - This quilt was displayed in Road to California 2016 and the 2016 Houston International Quilt Festival. It has also been accepted to the 2017 Fall AQS Paducah show.
