You cut up little squares ... are they all form the same floral print?
And then when you sew them back together, do you just sew them randomly? or do you choose which one goes where, to get a colour flow?
Or am I out to lunch on the general concept?

Wonder? do all those little pieces drive you about as mad as the OBW does when you are trying to come up with the placement? :)

I have never made a OBW so I don't know. It is kind of like "painting" with the little pieces ~must be why they call it watercolor ~ and at some point you just quit rearranging and sew them together. I thought it was fun.
