You know, I think it's one of those fabrics that could be an OK OBW.
Or a SPECTACULAR one.
You just won't know until you cut it up.
There is a lot of value variation in that print.
I think the final product will be very fiery. Or Halloween-ish. :mrgreen:
Both very cool (in a hot sense) and unusual outcomes.
Please post pics when you're done.

I just started a 4 patch stacked posey and meet with a local instructor about fabric choices. Yours is similar to what I origianlly choose but she said there was not enough color varation unless you wanted the blocks to be pretty much the same. She suggested one using more colors and having a medium amount of what I called background and she called void. The void can be large if it has varying degrees of color. Hope that helps.

I think that the repeat is pretty close together and there won't be much variety between the colors or patterns in your wedges. I've done a couple of OBW's and I think they turn out best when there is a fairly large print with lots of different colors. The print needs to be all over, not too much empty background. Your fabric does have that aspect.
I'm working on a floral one now. It has light green, dark green, light cream background, pink, purple, blue, yellow, red, fuschia. It is going to be very full of contrast and variety.

Now I am not sure what to do with it but i bought it because i fell in love with the fabric and NEEDED to own it. If not stack n wack or 4 posey what else would you suggest? I just liked the look of the fabric. Open to any and all ideas!
