Is there a pattern for the 3 dimensional cube? I think they're amazing to look at. Beautiful!

I guess I don't understand the obw - what are the "blocks" in the designs?

The quilt blocks are hexagons made by layering and cutting 6 layers of identical fabric into strips, then into triangles, similar to the stack and whack process. I guess part of the wonder is that you can get so many different designs from one fabric!

I like them, too. They are simply equilateral triangles made using light, medium and dark fabrics. There is one YouTube video I found through the board at this link

Also, see cutebuns' photos on this page, which will give you an idea about how the blocks might be made and put together.

I like it. This OBW is great. Sure can make the fabric change
how it looks. I will have to do one. Sometime.

I love that fabric! It gave so much variation within the block. I might have passed it up and thought this fabric had .too much background. Just beautiful
