    I'm working on my first OBW. I'm not crazy about the fabric but picked it up cheap for practice. I've laid it out and changed it on the design wall till I think it will be OK. Please give me your honest critique and suggestions. This is really more fun than I thought it would be. Loved making the cubes.

    I think I have that same fabric! I could be wrong - but I really think I do...!
    I think that it is making a really eye catching quilt. The colors and designs all merge together nicely.

    Beautiful! Perfect just as it is. This is really something I have got to try - someday. Just add it to the list, lol.

    Looks great. Do you have a picture of the fabric you used?
