    All I can say is "A-M-A-Z-I-N-G ! " And just how "big" are these tiny blocks? I'll say it again "AMAZING!"

    Thanks Gail! I cut the strips 2 1/2" so the triangles finish at 2" from base to tip. It's really NOT hard to do! I've made a second one for the Japan Twist Swap, I'll post it on that thread later today, just have to hand stitch the binding to the back. :D They're really fun to do on this scale and come together quickly! :D

    How did I miss this post originally? Beautiful! What did the original fabric look like? I hadn't thought that a 6" repeat would work, but it obviously does. That opens a whole new world of possibilities...

    Here's a link to a pic of the fabric http://www.quiltingboard.com/posts/list/45/19828.page it's so much fun to do them on this scale - a good yard of fabric is enough and they work up really quick! I made another one for the Japan Swap - there's a pic on the Japan Twist thread...Rhonda was so kind to send me these fabrics and because there was around a yard of each, I just minimised everything - because the blocks are smaller, the effect with a smaller print is as good! :D
