Fractals are difficult, since physical constraints require that you not stitch into infinity.
Tessellations, on the other hand, are perfect for quilts.
I hope I attached this picture correctly. It is M.S. Echer's Angels and Devils
One of my favorite things ever. It is a hyperbolic tessellation.

if you don't like that one, google search tessellation. There are lots of them. I like the hyperbolic ones because the tessellations illustrate relativity.

Right Thanks!Type 'fractal' into google images and you can see some examples.
A fractal is generally "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole,"[1] a property called self-similarity. Roots of mathematical interest on fractals can be traced back to the late 19th Century, the term however was coined by Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin fractus meaning "broken" or "fractured." A mathematical fractal is based on an equation that undergoes iteration

Those quilts are awesome! I used to dabble in fractals myself. It is very difficult to do good ones.

There once was a scotsman named Drew
Who put too much wine in his stew
He felt a bit drunk
And fell off his bunk
And landed smack into his shoe ~(C) Ms Niamh Anne King
