    How cool is that. I've seen that technique on some website but can't remember where. Going to have to search for it.

    The pattern I followed was May Batik Swap Bonus Quilt "Twist & Shout" that I found online after I saw the magazine picture. The colors & layout was my design. :-D .

    Thank you all for your kind words. If you can't tell, I'm really happy with the results.

    Very clever how that all happens.
    Thanks for showing us how you planned it - helps a ton!

    There's something about cutting up a quilt I've already put together that just doesn't make me happy, but this looks worth trying.

    I was really quite apprehensive about it and literally took a deep breath when I made that first cut. Once I cut, there was no turning back.
