    I like your idea. My OBW looked so jumbled that I put an edge around each block to give definition and, of course, it looks like Grandma's Flower Garden.

    Beautiful. I must admit that OBW are too "busy" for my eyes but the triangles slow down the pattern for me. The cubes add a lot of interest too. Thanks for showing this to us.

    I love your quilt. Thanks for the triangle suggestion, it does make the indiviual blocks stand out. I have the fabric for one, just afraid to cut it...

    Oh, my that is pretty. If this keeps up I will have to make one of these soon. You all keep inspiring me to give in and just do it.

    I love this one. It's the first OBW I've seen on here that the blocks don't all run together. Love it and your choice of fabric is great.
