OBW fabric. How did I do?
#192
Wednesday nights my BFF always comes for dinner and coffee. She leaves work, we eat, chat, and craft (she's a knitter, I usually sew something). After dinner tonight, I had her look at my design wall and tell me what she would do to make my blocks work. She shifted around a few things, and VIOLA! It's like magic. I just needed another set of eyes on it to make it work! I'm sewing that thing together tomorrow!
Here's the final layout:

I have TWO that I want to do now!! How's that?
I think I will give my eyes a break and make the top I already have fabric for (red and aqua chevrons I planned some months ago) first, though.

None of the blocks are the same, only 2 that I can tell are even really similar to one another.
The repeat on the original fabric was about 24 inches.

I think it was your daughter's OBW (black and white with Koi fish??) that first caught my eye--hers was SOOOO gorgeous. I honestly loved every single thing about that quilt! I stared at the photo you posted for a good while and then started researching how to make one. I threw all good sense to the wind, never even considering that it might be too difficult (it wasn't at all...it just LOOKS intimidating).
I have the two of you to thank for my current obsession! LOL
