Thank you all for looking and commenting, glad you like it. This board is just wonderful.

Ripped on Scotch, I prewash all my fabrics and prewashed these, too. Some people on the OBW tute threads recommended starching the fabric after washing, to help pin and cut the layers precisely. (I didn't starch mine and it still worked.)

Perfect! I was worried I'd have to raid my mother's in search of the starch....yep I said that. I like to "borrow" stuff from my mother but she raid's my stash too so it evens out in the end. Now I'm looking forward getting to make a OBW

I dito that! "MoM",
I am wondering what
You have in mind for the quilting? Flat is Out!!!
Join me
on the Quest,
to
give these quilts
Al-2-tu-ed.



I have just been introduced to this thing Called OBW... I just have a hard time doing the same thing more than "ONCE". Ha Ha!!
I have Cutebuns as my Adop-a-"MoM", All things in my path to quilt perfection is removed by my "MoM"... This is not just a board... it's a Global FamDamily.
The lighter blue in the center boarder makes it look like a still water pool with lilly pads floating to the center. BUT thats how A GUY would look at it, It draws your eye to the center with the movement of the Hex's.
Is there a reason for the placement of the center hex's more on top than bottom?
Good Job.

Ray..
