Has anyone done this?
I could only get 4 strips and 2 the same at the end so i used them together.I think it looks ok, as my fabric is making similar color blocks.Will give more blocks.
Don`t send the qpolice!!!! lol

Love the fabric and the movement is this block! I consider this a great design choice! Keep us posted on your progress♥

in a full quilt will you see it?
and is it important?

We could do this on purpose and have a whole new concept!! It's great.

It looks great to me! Keep going and you will soon have a beautiful quilt. Those blues and black really look good together.

"Sequester" the quilt police! Looks lovely -- don't mention it and no one will notice! Will be a lovely quilt.

looks good

QuiltnNan 03-16-2013 12:05 PM

i think you did a great job in putting it together... i'm sure it will blend in with the rest of the blocks

I like it - if you hadn't pointed out that there were two "odd" pieces in there, I never would have known.

Shirlrh 03-16-2013 12:58 PM

I really like it. The colors are so pretty.

djmat 03-16-2013 01:20 PM

I think the way you put it together is amazing. It looks good to me. No it is not a kaleidoscope like you had in mind. But no one else will know this pretty block is not as you first envisioned it. Keep going

looks so nice!!!!

Your block is your "artistic license" at work! Never mind the "rules" and keep up the great job!

It is a very creative way to make it work. No problem with doing this at all. When it is in the whole quilt, it will enhance the pattern.
peace

paintmejudy 03-18-2013 03:28 PM

It looks fine. I think you will be the only one who will know it is different, but when it's in the quilt, I'll bet you won't even be able to find it!

​I have made a couple of OBW quilts. In one of them I did use mis-matched hexagons to keep the pattern flowing. The wonderful thing about OBWs is that one can be creative and mismatches will not be noticed.
