    Why not try a kaleidoscope design instead of OBW. Look at Linda Rotz Miller's webpage for lots of ideas. She is so inventive!

    I think it will make a fine OBW if the triangles are not cut too large. Good Luck

    Maybe do not use a OBW but rather keep the birds in tact and donate it to the Audubon Society for a fund raiser?

    I agree with Kalamaquilts in that you will have lots of teal in your quilt. I also Agree with Dunster that the triangles will need to be small. Just my experience with OBW's. All that said, I think you can make a beautiful interesting quilt from this fabric. Keep us posted.

    Just saw in "Birds and Blooms" magazine beautiful quilts made from similar fabric. One was made for Ducks Unlimited group.
