    Woo Hoo, I was able to get the fabric from a board member (bless her) so I will join in this wonderful experiment.

The fabric is called Floral Master and is by Springs Creative Products. Gaigai sent me mine but I think it's from JoAnns if anyone else feels like getting some and joining in. Correct me if I'm wrong someone!

    Anyway, for those who don't know, a One Block Wonder or OBW is a kind of kaleidcoscope quilt similar to stack n whack. There is a Topic List here on the board and a brief description about them with details of the books here http://www.quiltingboard.com/virtual_section_list.jsp

    I think we'll all be using the technique from the One Block Wonder books by Maxine Rosenthal. See my link above for more info.

    So far it's me, imjustme and NUTMEG10 who are taking part plus nena in a couple of weeks. I know another lady has the fabric and I'm waiting to hear from her. Meanwhile, here's a pic of the fabric and my first blocks. Looking forward to seeing pics here on this thread from the other ppl with this fabric. It will be interesting to see the differences as we go along! :-D
    K, gorgeous! Do you fussy cut? These are so perfect.

    I won't be able to join as none of our local shops have any of this fabric. Ohh well...I will watch and keep my eyes open for my own perfect OBW fabric. Can't wait to see all the great quilts that will be made from this one fabric!

    A couple of ladies above have posted that they have or can get some fabric. Maybe try sending them a PM? :-D

    I love them Pat - I see some that are unlike the ones I got. But I sense you're not so keen on them... they really will look good once they're all laid out. :-D :-D :-D
