You could be right about that, thanks.

It's just that when we did the Stack & Whack designs in the class the instructor made mention that the One Block Wonder is a kind of S&W that uses no filler in the spaces between the kaliedoscope blocks, so that was what I was thinking about.

Maybe this is more like the current topic, with all the hexes jam up together. I hadn't thought about putting a separator color between the hexes, but can certainly see it could be done.
Interesting idea.

They are all great, I think if you do what looks good to you it will be fine and be pretty, it appears you can't go wrong. Good luck. I have yet to tackle OBW, someday.....
