If you can run to making 9 you could make a smallish square lap quilt, incorporating them with other fabrics. See http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-92847-7.htm for my attempt using kaleidoscopes cut from recycled fabric. Linda Rotz Miller makes lovely quilts using small numbers of kaleidocope blocks (rather than complete OBWs) http://www.quiltsandquilttops.com/

Thanks everyone. I have done the Dresden Kaleidoscopes for several years. I love the combination of the kaleidoscope with the look of a Dresden Plate.

Here are a couple of fun ones I included in the ebook. I played with this cat fabric and I think they are cute!

This first one makes me think of a spider in the center but they are the cats tails.

I didn't realize til I had it put together the second one half of the blades are not the same as the other half.
Can you tell the differance?

I love your work, and I would like to try these, maybe putting 2-3 for Table Runner But 1st alot of practice:)

I think these are gorgeous! They'd be doubly so as the central focus of a table cloth. Maybe add 1/4 of one to each of the four corners, point in the corner?
