Set of 3 Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares of Order 8

This is a visual representation of three Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares in the form of a quilt. Every "pair" of colors occurs once and exactly once within the quilt- that is, a square with a dark blue outside and an orange center, or a peach middle and a yellow center.

This is a machine sewn, hand quilted quilt. It represents three 8x8 Latin Squares. An n by n "Latin square" is a grid with n elements where each element appears once in each row and column. The term "orthogonal" means that when comparing two squares entry by entry, each ordered pair of elements will happen exactly once. These mathematical objects correspond to a number of different other mathematical concepts, like projective planes and design theory. They're also captivating and beautiful. Your attention is pulled in as you search for patterns, which there are in abundance.
