Fall Fruits OBW
#1
Rhonda sent me a stack of fabric a while back to make kaleidoscopes and here's the first top. There was just over a yard and the repeat was 6" so I managed to get enough to stack n whack. To intensify the OBW effect, I cut the strips at2 & 1/2" so the triangles finish at 2". Sorry about the blur in the corner - think I need to clean my lens!
These are great fun on this scale - the second one is already underway! I'd recommend anyone who wanted to give this a go to try a mini one like this first - a good yard of fabric is all you need and a couple of free evenings! :D
Thank you Rhonda for providing the fabric AND the inspiration to create a 'microscopic kaleidoscopic'!!! :lol:

I had 6 x 6" repeats and cut stacks of 6 triangles of 2 1/2" high (I got two strips from each repeat) to make hexagons. I filled in the sides with half hexs then just trimmed the points top and bottom. It's around 26" x 24" I think - haven't actually measured. This one is for Hans - he advised on the placement - I first went for lights in the middle radiating out but he said from light in one corner going across to dark and I like his way MUCH better! The other thing I did here for the first time is a skinny, 1/4" inner border and I really like the effect - so easy to do as well!

My one for Japan is about an inch larger than it's supposed to be, but that's because of the edge on it.
