    This would make an awesome stack-n-whack quilt. I like the idea of using a solid black background and then a wide border of this print. I'd love to see a picture of your finished quilt.

    what angle do you cut for the slices? 30 deg would be 12 slices for a 360. the repeat on the fabric is a block 10x14 inches..

    If you look for the posts on the class Cutebuns did (Something like "Tip Toe through the ....) She did OBWs with a 60 degree triangle, so you have 6 pieces, I think this fabric would look nice with that size.

    I vote too for the hexagon Cutie Style. I think it would be very pretty used for that.
