geometric pattern generator for old Macs

While looking for something else entirely, I came across the "Kali"
tiling pattern generator for Classic MacOS. It creates patterns
based on the 17 different plane symmetry groups. Within about five
minutes of initial tinkering with it I came up with this:

which looks like it ought to have potential as a quilt design,
albeit not that easy to machine-piece.

I couldn't get Kali to run on the Classic environment on MacOS X.

The software (along with other things that run on other and more
modern operating systems) is at

Ooh! that's beautiful Jack. I'd love to have a go at it.
May I try?

That's very similar to the top that I bought at an auction and
hand-quilted. The top was pieced by hand, and many of the fabrics were
from feed sacks. It's toward the bottom he
http://webpages.charter.net/jaccola/default.html I called the pattern
"Friendship Chain" though I'm not sure where I got the name -- I'm sure
I did some looking through websites, etc. It's got several other names
in Barbara Brackman's book.
