That is really nice...next time I make one I am looking at the Asian fabrics!

Wonderful job! As the book states, you will get less distortion if you arrange the triangles so the straight of grain is on the outside edge. if you rearrange your blocks a lot, this helps keep everything from stretching, especially your first OBW. Having said this, however, if you are careful, you really can arrange the triangles any way you want. Just handle gently. Starch helps. Can't wait to see your next one!

I love the look of your oriental fabrics.....unfortunately I don't have enough yardage in my stash of orientals to do one.

I did purchase enough of a Hoffman Christmas print.....now need to get cutting!

That is so beautiful. That fabric is just right for that pattern.

That is very pretty fabric and a pretty quilt. The back is also amazing. Truly a reversible one and trouble deciding which side I like better.

very nice....

Beautiful quilt!

When I made my OBW / kaleidoscope ones I only read the instructions as far as how to do the cutting so I was not inhibited by the requirement to keep the straight of the grain on the outside. Lol!

I do agree that it does probably make it easier to join the hexes together, but I didn't experience any major difficulty except when I tried to add a border and had trouble with getting the setting pieces right.

Absolutely beautiful. Love the colors.

very nicely done

that is wonderful - I love both sides. I am with Ruthrings, I have done several and turned my any way I wanted with no issues. You have to deal with bias on 2 sides so not sure it really makes a difference, just need to be careful
