Thanks, yes that is it, the luscious grapes on black, but they want $14 to ship me a yard over here to the UK so I'll keep on looking here. Thanks very much though. :-D

Do you have any idea what shipping might actually cost from the states? Wondering if you could have them ship to me stateside and me post it to you. Just a thought - I think I saw a post recently of a board member wanting to do something similar.

Thanks so much for the offer - I just had a look at shipping within the US and it's $5.30 for only half a yard of fabric. I guess it would then cost around $10 for you to send it on to me so amounts to about the same. :evil: Thanks for the offer though. :-D

To the lady above, OBW is One Block Wonder and is a term coined by Maxiner Rosenthal to describe this technique of making these kaleidoscope effect quilts. It's also the title of her books that give all the details you need to make them. :-D

I know this is an older post, but I didn't see it before, and I'm amazed at how beautiful this OBW is. The individual blocks seem to disappear, and yet my eye keeps wandering over discovering star after star. It's just beautiful, and the border treatment is wonderful.

I love this!!!!
How did you get the tumbling blocks into this design?
It looks like the other ones are hexagon ones?

Please let us know - What pattern is this?

This isn't a pattern, it's a technique. One Block Wonder, see my previous post to the other lady who asked. :-D
