this is so amazing! done this way, it looks so different! it hardly looks like a kaleidoscope. all you see is color changing from value to value. the color becomes all-important. what size will this one be?

can i be your sister?

I trust your design instincts. You are certainly one of the more talented quilters I've seen!

Karla I love it! and the fabrics are making me drool. :-D

Little question, why are you concerned about using the K block if it's to be used?

Weeeellll...I'm not considering any light to dark work, just a blending of seasons, so it won't look like circles...I feel I'm cheating myself out of a fabulous design the way it's meant to be...but I'm willing to step out of the box. :lol:

yes, it could be done in log cabins. I love the idea of using log cabins:) (couldn't be because they are a favorite block of mine) no not all LOL

Like I told Karla, I love it!! Of course, I love everything she does. But if you stand back from your monitor (and are as near-sighted as I am) it looks like a close up of a pinecone in a fir tree. Really neat.
