I've made and quilted 5 full size (lap or bigger) and 3 minis plus yours. There's a full size top and a banner-shaped wall hanging waiting to be quilted. I've the blocks assembled for one more, plus the fabric for I don't know how many more! :lol:
I do love this one a bunch! It is so striking! And your feathering does look like flames. Love it Kathryn!! You do such fantastic work! And I can see how much you are enjoying the new machine!!

As for Hans using my stuff - NO WAY!!! :mrgreen:

Yes I'm always on the lookout for OBW fabric, it does make you look at fabric differently - and not only fabric! I mentally stack n whack wallpaper, rug designs, even a man's tatooed arm once. And my DH has caught it too - the other evening there was an ad on TV with a woman prancing around in a field of flowers and he started laughing. I said 'what's funny?' and he said 'I was looking to see if there was a pattern repeat in those flowers because I thought they'd make a nice OBW'!:lol:
