My original was posted here, page 6:

Our fabrics are so similar star...just an asian print with crysanthemums and black background. Yours has lots of pink too, and it will be perfect!! I love the way your blocks are looking. Isn't it wild how different they come out from the original fabric?

Yes! they are so close :shock: :-D we have great taste!!
At first I left them the way I cut them just to see and then I started moving them around to decide what way I liked best. Can't wait to finish up cutting!

I really like how some of yours form a neat "star' like pattern when put together :thumbup: what a variety.
I think once I get this down i will have to make more for sure! I guess I really like the whole one fabric thing ;)

Okay so I am also a little late to the boat, but I decided to give this a try. I had some fabric that I've had hanging around for a few years that I didn't really like, and figured if I screwed this up royally I won't really care! :) I *think* I actually like how it turned out, though it may have been better with a smaller triangle, but I wasn't interested in that much sewing if I wasn't in love with this. :)

Here's my original fabric:

And here is a block auditioned two ways (I like them both, but I think I'm going to go with the circle one.)

And here are 3 of my blocks together:

I still have another half of fabric to cut and then I will get to sewing them together. I don't think I have enough fabric to make a big blanket, but maybe it'll be a nice baby blanket ....

Thanks!
Rachel
