    faykilgore, I think the hardest part is when you put it on the design wall and try to put it together.. I think the book says to start with your favorite block and put it in the middle of the design wall then sort of take the same colors as around that block and make them flow into each other.. clear as mud huh?

    OBW's are my favorite quilts. They are just so unique. You did a wonderful job. The second one is even easier. LOL

    Looks great and it's fun that you used the original fabric as the border.

    I love OBWs, and yours is very pretty. I like the way you've included the original fabric in the border, too.
