You are SO right! I started one OBW, and really liked the way it was turning out (I had about 30 'blocks'). Then I started thinking about how neat it would look with a different fabric that had brighter colors, etc. You get the idea. I now have two OBWs in progress, but no quilt tops out of them yet! (But if I happen to see just the right fabric......)
