    Wow! That is awesome! I love the colors and the mixture of designs. You need to put it in some quilt shows and hope they would be where I could see it.

    The three large interlocking cubes alone have 242 separate pieces in (I counted them eventually! :lol: )
    It was slow going because I did as the book said (One Block Wonders Cubed) - which was cut and put one triangle on the board before starting another. I think it would nigh on impossible to cut all those in one go and not get in a muddle. I drew up a graph and list to work from.
    I cut some small differing size cubes and put them into some of the black and white hexagon blocks.
    Each b/w hex has a silver metallic hexagon quilted in the middle, and I just meandered over the remainder, but I did SID on the cubes.
    The silver metallic border cubes and crystal shapes are freehand, and I'm pleased with the effect.
    When I started quilting I saw 2 errors, and couldnt face taking it apart - if you can spot them, please don't tell me .......
    That is so cool, i haven't attempted one yet. It looks great and i couldn't see the mistakes, good on you and to have it handing.
