    Thanks Susy, I just leave it on the design wall and when something catches my eye, I change. These are such fun.

    You make it sound so easy. It looks so hard. You give me the incentive to try. Maybe you could do a tut on OBW????

    You will love the book. I have all three in the series. They really are addictive.

    They do appear to be fun and great for creating one of a kind.

Meant to post this on that thread and didn't get around to it.

    Please keep us posted on your progress when you get the book. Be prepared to get hooked on them.

    cutebuns has a tut on here that you can try. I bought the books also so I could have reference material.

    Thank YOU for that! :-D

    Could you post a pic of the fabric for the second one? I love the swirls it's making. Funny what you said about counting repeats -I was at a show a while back, with some Asian chrysanthemum fabric rolled partly off the bolt, working my finger down the length to judge the repeat and two ladies walked past, one nudged the other, pointed at me and whispered 'stack n whack!' :lol: Lucky I know it's not a new form of insult! :mrgreen:
