    Love the second one. Very creative way to add contrast and interest!

    In this particular case, since the original fabric doesn't offer too great a variety of patches for a OBW I like your second choice with contrasting blue triangles. :thumbup:

    I'm going to do the kaleidoscope or stack and wack with the blue triangles and will try another OBW with different fabric, which I have already picked out! :-D
    This sounds like the perfect solution to me. I think you will be happy with your decision and both quilts will be great!

    Candace, that is a beautiful quilt! Love the colors! I am saving it in the 'to do' file!
