"Ring Cycles Reversed" by Lessa Siegele is the same as her quilt "Ring Cycles", but with a dark background.

Ring Cycles Reversed features the same pattern as Lessa's quilt Ring Cycles, except that she uses a dark background instead of a light one. Lessa loves movement in her quilts, but this one was done all with straight piecing, and while not based on a historic quilt from Australia like many of Lessa's other works, its design still originates in an older traditional style quilt. The original Ring Cycles title stems from Lessa's husband's love of the Ring Cycles opera and the many circular nine-patches creating rings throughout.
