I chain them as well - first into the pairs then into the halves. When I press the halves, I then pin and put up on my 'design wall' (in fact it's just a pack of batting hung on the wall)! I use those little aspplique pins as they're really small and light so they stay put.

I don't know, I'm afraid but I only got it a few weeks ago from Gai. Don't know how long she had it though. Maybe someone else can help? I'll PM Gai. :-D

I need a design wall, maybe I can work on that this weekend. I am so scared the kids are gonna mess with my pieces so I have them hidden lol

I chain them as well - first into the pairs then into the halves. When I press the halves, I then pin and put up on my 'design wall' (in fact it's just a pack of batting hung on the wall)! I use those little aspplique pins as they're really small and light so they stay put.[/quote]

I've also looked for it online and can't find it. It sure is making some beautiful blocks. How big is the typical kaleidoscope block?

Hiya Ducks! I don't know if there's a 'typical' but a good size for these OBWs (as recommended in the book) is to cut a 3 3/4" strip. This makes a finsihed block of 6" across. I sometimes cut bigger or smaller though, depending on the print size. :-D

PS Just heard from quiltstodo who also has this fabric and will be joining in after she's finished her current project. And thanks imjustme for the correction on the fabric supplier. Hancocks sell online as well don't they? Will check! :-D

I just got mine a couple weeks ago at joann's. Maybe they don't carry it online. Do you have a store near you?
