    Man! I love your sunset pic!!! The choice of colors as well as the pattern. I can believe it would be awhile before
    you made another but since it turned out so beautiful you may have to make another one.

    Both your quilts are great! Don't you love making OBW's? It is so fun to see the amazing designs that come out of less then wonderful fabrics.

    Great quilts! It's just amazing what happens when you take a so-so fabric and use it for a OBW!

    And that Radiant Sunshine and Shadows quilt is fabulous!!! I LOVE those; even have the book, but haven't done one with the size blocks they suggest. I did use the same technique but with 2½" strips (so, yes my blocks were 3 times the size of yours), and liked the way that one turned out too.

    The quilts are stunning. I keep looking at these OBW quilts that are posted on QB but darned if I can figure out how they are done (put together)

    I think your OBW testifies to the fact that there sre no ugly fabrics, just need the right pattern. The Sunset one is fabulous.....I don't have that book and wonder if I would do it if I did....looks very, very labor intensive....great job!!!
