    My original was posted here, page 6:

    Our fabrics are so similar star...just an asian print with crysanthemums and black background. Yours has lots of pink too, and it will be perfect!! I love the way your blocks are looking. Isn't it wild how different they come out from the original fabric?

    Yes! they are so close :shock: :-D we have great taste!!
    At first I left them the way I cut them just to see and then I started moving them around to decide what way I liked best. Can't wait to finish up cutting!

    I really like how some of yours form a neat "star' like pattern when put together :thumbup: what a variety.
    I think once I get this down i will have to make more for sure! I guess I really like the whole one fabric thing ;)

    Okay so I am also a little late to the boat, but I decided to give this a try. I had some fabric that I've had hanging around for a few years that I didn't really like, and figured if I screwed this up royally I won't really care! :) I *think* I actually like how it turned out, though it may have been better with a smaller triangle, but I wasn't interested in that much sewing if I wasn't in love with this. :)

    Here's my original fabric:

    And here is a block auditioned two ways (I like them both, but I think I'm going to go with the circle one.)

    And here are 3 of my blocks together:

    [img]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4058/...9dd04b2f_o.jpg[/img]

    I still have another half of fabric to cut and then I will get to sewing them together. I don't think I have enough fabric to make a big blanket, but maybe it'll be a nice baby blanket ....

    Thanks!

    I think that they are turning out very cute, I think it would be a great kids or baby blanket.
