Not counting my mini how many have you done now?

Wel you know the expression 'little things please little minds!' :mrgreen:

I've made and quilted 5 full size (lap or bigger) and 3 minis plus yours. There's a full size top and a banner-shaped wall hanging waiting to be quilted. I've the blocks assembled for one more, plus the fabric for I don't know how many more! :lol:

I think we can safely say you are obsessed!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Or is that possessed??? :mrgreen: :mrgreen: by the One Block Wonders?? :lol: :lol:

I do love this one a bunch! It is so striking! And your feathering does look like flames. Love it Kathryn!! You do such fantastic work! And I can see how much you are enjoying the new machine!!

Mine is those colours - I think it's the flash, it's draped over the bannisters under a pile of other tops in the quilting queue and I just lifted them up, stuck the camera under there and snapped. :lol:

As for Hans using my stuff - NO WAY!!! :mrgreen:

Your OBW turned out so beautiful K. Have you started the next one yet! LOL!!!

Every time I see a OBW quilt I am in awe, they are just amazing.... love it!

warm quilt hugs, sue in CA

:-) Love it. I can see where you came up with the name for it :thumbup:

Oh please post pics if you can - I'd love to see them!

Yes I'm always on the lookout for OBW fabric, it does make you look at fabric differently - and not only fabric! I mentally stack n whack wallpaper, rug designs, even a man's tatooed arm once. And my DH has caught it too - the other evening there was an ad on TV with a woman prancing around in a field of flowers and he started laughing. I said 'what's funny?' and he said 'I was looking to see if there was a pattern repeat in those flowers because I thought they'd make a nice OBW'!:lol:

When you catch Hans using your sewing machine and or cutting out OBWs I want to see a picture of that!!! LOL My DH bought a Brother and says it is for him!! But we shall see if he uses it! LOL

I came home from work two years ago to find my husband at my elna sewing machine, sewing patches on his leather jacket, my eyes must have poped, he looked up and said what, and I said thats close to a $600 machine your sitting at, and thats not a leather needle.

I was a little upset with him, so the next time he took it to a place were they sew leather. Now I cant work so no one touches the sewing machine. :| Penny

Awww Penny...thats too funny!! I'd have bought him a leather needle.. :lol:

no way I did not want him to use my sewing machine again. He now dose not touch my sewing machine. :lol: safer that way.
