Fake quilt

I like bold, simple designs, but I am also a sucker for colorful, intricately detailed patterns as well. Here's another Saint Michel tie (see my 9/1/05 tie) with a printed pattern that mimics a patchwork quilt, albeit on a smaller scale. It's a great mix of tiles featuring flowers, leaves, and general shapes with a nice distribution of colors. Like yesterday's tie, the basic layout is a grid, and tomorrow's tie will be yet another grid, with a twist (literally)...
