Stack and whack is technique where you cut repeats of the fabric. Then you stack up the repeats and cut out your pieces. Usually triangles. You then have 8 pieces all the same. Looks a lot like a kaleidoscope. I think it was Bethany Reynolds that wrote the first book :)

Okay, I'm relatively new to this message board. Can someone please tell me what an OBW is? Thanks,
Myra
