    That's an interesting piece. I will be curious to see the designs patterns you get from this.

    I take the fabric bolt...roll it out a little..Find a spot that sticks out to you..then find it again (or where it repeats again). Measure the space between those and thats the size of your repeat :) Make sense?

    so I took and measured from the dragons nose

    24" repeat

    I looked at that for a obw. Think it will be great. Will be looking forward to see how it works up.

    This fabric will make a beautiful, colorful OBW. It will be fun to see what blocks come out of it. I have my OBW fabric and hope to get started on it this weekend.

    You have a good eye. This is definitely a good OBW selection. Do you carry a set of mirrors with you when you shop? When I see something interesting, I put the mirrors up and slide them around. Really don't even need mirrors with this print. It moves beautifully!

    One block wonders are so much fun, but they are very addictive. Good luck.....That fabric should be fabulous...
