  This is absolutely gorgeous. The colours blend beautifully. You must have artistic tendencies, not sure I could create such an effect. Fabulous!

  Thank you. I only made some small adjustments to the colour scheme, the real credit goes to Lucia of Lucias fig tree who designed the colour scheme

  Inspired by you I have now purchased the kit and am up to motif 8! I find it very relaxing. Must create a project to show progress.

  I've just purchased yarn to make the eastern jewels blanket, do you have a colour chart to go along by

  The kit should come with a colour chart I think. It shows the colours for each individual motif and the order to join them.

  Having made the Persian Tiles in the original colourway this inspires me to do it all over again!
  How do you decide which colour to use where?

  I bought it as a kit. It comes with a colour chart for every motif. I did change a few of the colours but I cannot take credit for the design or layout. I also added a slightly different border.

  Lovely Katie, first class. I have the Persian tiles yarn and pattern but have yet to get on with it almost savouring the start of it as I think it will be a great make but yours is an inspiration
