Hi everyone! Here's another OBW I just finished. I call it 'Fanning the Flames' because it reminds me of fire plus it amuses me to think up names for these! Doesn't take much... :mrgreen:

I'm also posting a picture of the original fabric. For OBW fans who like to know the details - the repeat was 12", I used a single repeat and cut the strips at 3 3/4" wide and the finished quilt is 44" x 42". I wanted something fairly small to practice FMQ. Thank you for looking. :-D

Very nice! You are da queen of OBW's. How's the new baby doing?

The new baby is wonderful! Keeps me busy all day but let's me sleep nights!

I love it! Great colours also! May I just ask what OBW stands for? Another newbie question...

One block wonder

Love it!

Thank you! I want to be able to make such a nice one when I grow up to be a quilter :mrgreen:

Oh wow!
Great name for it.

That's really pretty!!
I'm thinking that's another one to snatch! :)

WHAT NEW BABY??

Thanks everyone! Stummel, check out the Virtual Section here on the board to see more about OBWs - there's a link highlighted in blue at the bottom left of the page. Always glad to recruit more victims to the OBW obsession! LOL

Don't get excited - I haven't been preggers and not told you! I got a Janome 6600P at the weekend. :-D

PS - You'll need a really big, strong suitcase if you plan on swiping that as well!!!LOL

Oh, WHEW!!!
I knew you got the new machine. Thought maybe a new furbaby or something! lol

I just showed hubby this new one of yours. He LOVES it! He asked me....is she one that you are going to go and visit? If so, take another suitcase. LMAO!!

Oh my! You're both as bad as each other! :lol: A match made in heaven! :mrgreen:

Yes we are! A friend of ours says we are made for each other. His favorite veggie is peas and mine is carrots. Peas and carrots just go together...get it? lol

Oh that's beautiful. I don't even want to know how you gals make these quilts--I just want to keep seeing them.

I like the name. I get naming them. :wink:

Thanks Karla! Our quilts are our 'babies' right? We HAVE to name 'em! :-D

Mine is carrots too! When I was little, if there weren't any on my plate, I'd scowl and say to my Mum 'no orange?!' I thought a plate looked plain boring without some carrots on there! We nearly always have carrots plus a greeny cos it's good for us! :mrgreen:

I'm thinking we all need to go to Karla's house, hug on some horses and learn OBW. When do you think you can get a flight, K???

Another absolutely beautiful and stunning OBW-great job I love it!
hugs
April
(who is thinking her OBW will look no where near as good :-( )

I'll just jump on my broomstick and be there in a flash! :mrgreen:

Wow! That is gorgeous!

I can't wait to start mine. Seeing everyone else's makes me wish I had more time. Hopefully start this weekend.

Another gorgeous quilt! Love it and great name. Enjoy your new machine.

K- another gorgeous quilt!! You need to come to the states and give us lessons or at least a kick in the butt to make one. Afraid to start!

Oh crap....now I'm drooling over another one!!! K, I just love how your "whip" these out! I'm just plain ole' :mrgreen: Congrats on your new baby too....I saw where you got him/her??? , but I don't think I told you I was excited for you.

Thanks for sharing the fabric info on this one...I might just have to find some fab...you know so I can stick it in my stash and pet it telling it that "someday" it will grow up to be a OBW.... :roll: :lol:

I love that quilt kathryn, wow!!!!

OMG K, I have got to try a OBW. That is stunning.

very pretty

Ooooh! So pretty. I love it. I like how you repeated the original leaf shape in your border. At least that's what it looks like to me. Awesome OBW. Congrats!

That's them feathers again - guess I really am 'hooked'! I thought they might be like licking flames, to follow the name of the quilt but then maybe I'm being fanciful... leaves are good too! :-D

Patti - she's a she - Hans might get jealous if it was a 'he' the amount of time I'm spending! No name yet though, hmmm have to come up with one! :mrgreen:

Thanks everyone - if you ever get sick of me posting these, you WILL all let me know, won't you? Warning - there are another two draped over the bannisters waiting to be quilted! 8-)

I'll never ever be sick of seeing the absolutely gorgeous OBW's, every one different and every one amazing.

Oh I love this one! And the name too, I have to name all mine too. I thought I was weird at first but I see more of us doing it. ;) :mrgreen: You know it looks like there is enough interest for Cutie to start another quilt along......

Oh yes, Cutie has done a great job in recruiting more victims to the OBW cause!!!

Beautiful quilt!!!!

lovely OBW :thumbup:

It's just beautiful.

I've seen a few of these, and I'm really thinkin' I need to try this!
One fabric, soooo many different ways to use it!!
Incredible!

Very pretty. :thumbup:

Oh, my. I love it. I just bought one of those books and I can't wait to get around to making one of those quilts. Yours is just beautiful!

Thanks everyone - yes, try it! But look out - they're addictive!
