I was thinking of just the ones that tile the plane, like the Gosper island.
The Koch flake can also tile, but it uses a couple of different sizes, so I'm
not sure how feasible it is.  As for other fractals, I haven't really explored
many of them, so it was more a random thought.

I was simply thinking that some of them would make good patterns.
