Here's something to while away a few idle moments (and let it not be said that I encourage people to neglect their duties and start playing with images and textiles and what have you ... would I do such a thing myself?): when you have time, go to the V&A's patchwork pattern maker, upload a picture and have it converted into a patchwork quilt. That's part of my cornflower above, and I chose the fifteen colour and medium complexity options for it, but there's scope for many variations and lots of fun to be had.
