Hello Everyone, I had committed to doing this quilt with you all, got the fabric from GaiGai, and got the triangles cut while in France taking care of my Mother. Then when I got home I put it all away and have been working on other projects.

I just finished some quilted batik couch and chair covers, and promised myself to get the OBW out next.

So here I am, I have six halves sewn together. I got the book out, and noticed it says to always put the straight of grain on the outside of the hexagon. That eliminates the option to choose which placement looks best.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Is this carved in stone?

Thanks, and I am so happy to finally back get to this project.

Nicky
