What a gorgeous quilt, I love the zingy colours and the borders. Have bought the fabric for a OBW quilt but daren't start it yet as I have too many UFO's to finish first.

Yours is the first Stack and Whack I've ever like. It's creative and beautiful - a true art quilt.

I agree

Unfortunately, no I don't. But I'll look for one of those too. Thanks for your help.

Also check out the OBW books by Maxine Rosenthal.

hcarpanini,
Your quilt is gorgeous. I love how you have a lot of background and your border is fantastic.

I attempted this pattern only to have huge issues with peaks and valleys when I sewed 2-Pair of rows together. What did I do wrong?????????? I thought I sewed them very carefully with the bias to the inside. Can anyone help me so I can finish this pattern?

Try ironing your seams open and see if that helps.
