Patchwork quilt floor!

You just know that some sweet little old Nana who has been making quilts for the last 50 years has seen this photo and gone β€œchallenge accepted” and make a blanket with that pattern

Ok, I’ve decided I can’t leave well enough alone, but these pictures really do not do this mosaic justice. It is 9,000 square feet, and is basically patchwork spanning over 15 centuries. Here are some other pictures of the Antakya mosaic:

Also, it is not one of the largest mosaics; it is the single largest intact ancient mosaic in the world.
