One fabric, the repeats are cut and stacked, then cut and sewn into hexagons. :D:D:D

Scroll down here and you can read a lengthy description and see pictures of quilts :wink:

Warning: once you start creating it you may never stop.

Maxine Rosenthal's first edition was called "One-Block Wonders" circa 2005. There are now three (3) separate books available. Maybe she will have another version.

Constantly, I look at fabric and just ponder - would this work up to be a OBW? :-)

Enjoy the above mentioned links to the gallery.

So what do you look for to make it a good OBW?
