I wasn't really happy with this quilt - I think my fabric choice for this project was just way too busy for a One Block Wonder. so I decided to add some cubes to brighten it up - hence the name. Not my favorite quilt, but I like it a little better now. Really like the cubes, will probably experiment more with these sometime down the road.

Pictures turned out sideways - Sorry
|
very nice...love the blocks in it.
|
Guess what? I liked the subtlety of it without the cubes!
|
The cubes pop! Good design "fix"!:)
|
Is that a Sassaman print? It's great in the OBW.
And those cubes look like they're floating - very 3D-ish with the values you choose. They definitely added a lot of WOW factor to the quilt. |
No I don't believe it is a Sassaman print, though it does remind me a lot of her work. I picked this up at JoAnn's. Love those 50% off coupons.
|
I love the cubes!
|
It's a neat effect with the blocks and does reduce the business.
|
I think a whole quilt of the cubes would be awesome!
|
Love the cubes!

cool cubes

I love it! The cubes are great in the quilt. I still have not tried this. I bought the book and it just sits, lol. One day I will do one. In the meantime, I enjoy looking at everyone else's.
|
I love it! Those cubes really set it off. Good job :D:D:D
|
Looks great!!
|
LOve the quilts But I would have liked to see it without them I think I would like it better
|
This is a work of art, I love it.
|
i prefer the quilt before the cubes. but the cubes would be a neat quilt on their own, too
|
Love it! The cubes look great, really add interest and contrast to the hex's. What a beautiful quilt! Love the pink inner border too. Great job!
|
Love the cubes. They sure add another dimension to the quilt.
|
I love it with and without the cubes....love the colors too
|
I think your cubes are great, they really light it up. Lovely quilt!
|
Looks great.
|
I like that quilt before the cubes and I am not one who likes busy quilts. I like yours a lot.
|
Gorgeous! I love the cubes. The whole quilt is amazing.
|
it turned out very pretty, the cubes makes it pop
|
Love it! Great job!
|
Great job. The cubes really look cool.
|
Love the addition of the cubes!
|
Love the cubes!
|
I like it!
|
I would love to have seen the fabric before cutting.
It always amazes me what the OBW does to fabric !!!!! |

The coloring on your cubes are PERFECT! But I think the original border print is just a little too busy, and kinda detracts from the unique designs in the center. JMHO
|
Norva, each of your hexagon blocks is fuss-cut to Perfection! But overall, it does look a little ? muddled ? when seen from a distance. The blocks are such a striking contrast to the background quilt, I think it must reflect something of your intricate and contradictory personality??? maybe??? ;0)
|
thanks, I always enjoy seeing what develops.........
|
I think it's wonderful!! :-D
|
your choice of pink frame worked "wonders"--love the cubes--which book did you use-or didn't you?
|
Way to go! An artistic uptick to OBW.
