    Beautiful quilts..love your Warm Windows...what an undertaking. I made Pam Buda’s Circa 1800 last year and am not sure I want to tackle all those little pieces again.❤️

    I like little pieces luvstoquilt I don't need more quilts, but I need to sew, like many here it is my happy place. So I make complicated quilts, double sided to save space and money.

    Peckish, yes those print bits on the sides of the One Block Wonder is the original fabric. All that was left was this piece, which is now cut up and in my 2.5" scrap boxes. One of the reasons it lay trapped in the finished but not finished limbo was the size it came out, too big and too small. The original book was a bit unclear about how much fabric to get.

    Thank you for your compliments, I couldn't have created either without a working wall the other side of my brain.

    I, too, am speechless. Your Warm Windows is just stunning. I couldn't begin to count the hours spent making it. The finished quilt is unbelievably beautiful, and then on the back side is your One Block Wonder, another precision beauty. WOW.

    I love it! I love when OBWs, Florentine Fantasies, and 4-patch posies have chunks of the original fabric in them, so you can see how they started out.

    Both sides are beautiful!
