Special patterns surch

It's a attic window variation - "curved" to look like it's seen through a ball it is stunning though!

The variation I know, I used to have a book full of this sort of drawings but I don't have it anymore, now I am on the look out for these sort of patterns:)

But I think I have to draw them myself:)

Escher? I remember seeing his night and day shown at the Evoluon ( Philips owned interactive technology museum given to Philips by the workers in the

look for Escher and tessellations in google ;-)

:) I already did, but it was mostly just repeating patterns, not the distorted ones:)

Hhhmmmmm . . . . . nice design and interesting idea.

Do you by any chance use EQ5 software? I thing this could be drawn in EQ as a quilt. I have played with a few "3D" drawings in EQ - the last one a Moebius ring.

Actually - it might be easier to trace into EQ.

Don't know anything about the pattern, but thanks for the link, there are some real beauties. Heidi from Germany

:)) I don't know what EQ is, I use an imac and don't have any quilting or embroidery software for it.

I have a quilting program somewhere, I will look it up and let my hubby show it to me (he is the one who uses windows in this house:)

Good idea, thank you.

If you search on tessellations you will get many and varied links. It is addictive once you get into it so set aside a lot of time lol.

Jinny Beyer has a book that explains how to design tessellations.

Depending on the type of tessellation you want there is a new book out -

But if you want to try drawing a curved design that suggests a 3D shape a set of French Curve drawing templates would be handy. Most stationers/art suppliers will have them - plastic shapes to draw smooth curved lines.

I tried a different search and came up with:

Thanks, I like them already after a glance:))

Thank you also, I think I'll be reading and learning the rest of the week:)

Yessss....its perfect, but I liked the 3d ones you and Jessamy gave me too:)) My hub has coral draw (and is interested in maths:)) thanks verry much:))

The picture following the link I sent is the "untwisted" one I put into Corel. Then Bitmap, Distort, Swirl. If you have a particular quilt design you want to distort I can export a quilt layout into a bmp or jpg file and send it to you, and you can get DH to distort it in Corel.

I wish I hadn't read this thread. Now I want to make one!!! Going to a quilters flea market tonight and going to look for books on this. If you find this pattern let us know the source.

thanks,

Denny

Ow..it's beautifull........:)

You are amazing...I have stored the image, if you dont' mind and have the time, continue, you have my full attention........I'm better in idea's and collors then in actual design work:)

I have sent an email to the shop the site belongs to and I'm still waiting:)

I was working in B&W because I planned to put this into EQ to trace and the basic shades make it easier to see. EQ enables me to play with colour more easily than in Corel. I can create shades and tones.
