Wonderful addition to this quilt.

WOW! I'm impressed! The first thing that popped into my mind was "In the midst of chaos, you can still find beauty". I agree that a whole quilt of these blocks would be dynomite! In 22 years, have never seen this pattern with the hole in the middle. Pattern name? I love 3 dimensional quilting! Great idea!

I love the the cubes. Were they appliqed on or done as part of the design. Makes me want to do something with the one block wonder.

What a great addition in the blocks. They really make the whole quilt pop

It always amazes me what the OBW does to fabric !!!!!

The border is the original fabric - if you can tell from the photo - I'm really not a very good photographer.

Now that's a thought :)

I have Maxine Rosenthall & Joy Pelzmann's One-block Wonders Cubed, but found it a little advanced for my limited skills, so picked up their previous book "One-Block Wonders Encore" and found it much more usefull.
