Tiles as Quilt Inspiration

Tiles. It’s probably not initially a post you would expect
from a quilter.

In fairness, I’ve had a love affair with tiles even before I
started quilting. But since I became a quilter, well, tiles are now an
obsession!
I get a ton of quilt design ideas from tiles. Bathrooms,
kitchens, flooring, you name it, it inspires me.
I even have a whole Pinterest board dedicated to the tiles
that I love!
So in this week’s post, I thought I would share some of the
recent tiles that have caught my eye.

I hope this inspires you to see tiles in a whole new light
and see possibilities everywhere 🙂

Happy quilting!

    Yes! I have so many photos of tiles in my camera roll right now. These are some beautiful finds, Shannon! I especially love the "flying geese" one! 😉 Feeling some inspiration coming on!

    I love those pictures! I've also taken photos of tiles or carpeting – I even took one of a shower curtain once!!! The people in my life have gotten used to it now but I still get some very strange looks when I abruptly stop on my way somewhere to grab a shot of that fabulous flooring!!! 🙂
