    I pieced them using a clear plastic templet. Find an area on the fabric you like, trace it out on the templet. Dont trace everything, Just enough to help you place it on the same motif in the design. Cut out the area and sew them together. This creates a calidascope effect. Then I applacad them down and hand stitched the black ribbon around them. Sorry if I have spelling errors. I'm terrable at spelling :?
    Thanks for the info! I'm somewhat familar with Kaleidoscope blocks, but these in your wall hanging seemed so tiny that I was thinking each one was whole. What size are they? What is the fabric line? Wow again!
