Quilt Notes: MORNING is illustrated in Rhoda Ochser Goldberg's QUILTING AND PATCHWORK DICTIONARY, a very simple four patch design, that encourages some creative use of exotic fabrics. Other titles include MORNING CIRCLE and MORNING PATCH, which is illustrated in Maggie Malone's 5500 QUILT BLOCK DESIGNS (#1611) with an interesting variation, see left. The decorative pattern used in the center fill for this illustration is borrowed from a fractal design, chosen from hundreds of fascinating geometric configurations and fractal art available at Wikipedia Commons. Additional designs at this site celebrating octagons, include GRANDMA'S SURPRISE, and PIGEON TOES.
