This is late coming. My first attempt did not work out and so wasted three days. After starting over again, I came up with the Celtic Knot Quilt. Curving a straight line and interweaving the lines in and out and then finally connecting. It was bit of a challenge, but it was lots of fun. It felt like putting a jigsaw puzzle togther. The quilt is 22" X 22". Comments and suggestions are always welcome.

This is beautiful. I want to say simple yet complex. That sounds sort of silly, but I love that the knot is so complex but symmetrical, and the two-color scheme is so simple, but very powerful. It's a piece I can imagine having on my wall and enjoying over and over again.
What wonderful symmetry you achieved in this piece! If it weren't for the subtle shading in the lines, I might suspect it was done with mirrors. Great work, Deborah.
very nice! I'm glad someone did a celtic knot for this challenge.
Very well done. Was this your own design? Could I ask if you used bias tape or cut your own fabric on the bias. I just tried something much more simple and had problems getting the points sharp and some of curves to be flat. Any advice on working with this would be great.
I AM BLOWN AWAY! I have always been in awe of these knots. You did wonderful workmanship [workwomanship] on this piece.
I love doing Celtic knots, and this is a great design. Is this the first one you have done?
I love the great contrast in colors that allows the Celtic knot to be the sole focus of this piece. Very intricate work. Beautiful! Pam Clark
