I have a Breakfast at Tiffany's layer cake and will make a rail fence after watching the MSQC video.

I just posted a picture today of one I just pieced (Hexagon Hip Hop) - you beat me to it with the link Omak!
It's an excellent pattern - the offcuts from the half hexagons are used up in the border strips, so there was no waste. There are several other good ones in the book too.

Moda Bakeshop has some patterns also.

Thanks for this info!

alimaui--thanks 4 all those links--those pinwheels are great! love those colorful ones...
have been looking on moda's bakeshop site but am wondering when they posted all those new ones!!! all i kept seeing was those Boxes! those little 4patches are cute, too...

you know, i happened to see that right after i posted my quest!
i like that first top, although it looks like you slice/dice quite a bit! the hex top just isn't my "speed", although i do like your color combinations!

railfence sounds like a plan! now that's EZ enough 4 me!
thanks 4 the reminder!
