I'm going to be making some OBW blocks soon, I got 4 squares from a panel of "Catitude" with black background and will be doing a departure of my traditional style of quilts with the panel squares and the OBWs, some stripes, and other things in a modern setting. I will be using black background fabrics with metallics and setting it with black (all the better to see cat hair on it!). I can see it in my head and I'm collecting fabrics, but that's as far as I've gotten so far.

Yes, I don't remember where I saw it, but I found it much easier to line them up and sew them together!
