A few years ago, Richard and I took our first trip to Italy. (I say first because I'm really hoping to return one day!) We went on a tour with a company that knew all about the wonderful places and Bascilicas to see. This is the floor of St. Mark's Bascilica. It's not a real great picture because they don't allow flashes inside the bascilica so I had to take this without a flash. I was so inspired by this floor, I came home and got back into quilting. My plan is to one day create a quilt that mimics this beautiful floor!
