I've just done piecing this top. I used the stack n whack technique in the Maxine Rosenthal book, One Block Wonders. It was really fun to do, but I'm not sure I really like it - I think I should have had a fabric with a larger motif in it and a longer pattern repeat - hence my moaning and whining on the lurcher fabric thread! I buy my fabric online and most sites don't tell you size of print and length of pattern repeat - when you have to order 4 or 5 yards, you don't want to make a mistake!
Anyway, maybe it will look better with a border, but what kind? Opinions please! Plus, I've no idea how to quilt it!

Pansy kaleidoscope top (it's the same fabric that Rhonda used a while back - I think hers were more striking as individual blocks but I wanted to make a full kaleidoscope quilt as per my book's instructions!)

Here's a pic of the original fabric and the book I used - I didn't use the template in the end because it was for octogans and i did hexagons - I thought it would be easier to start as there are no gaps to fill!
