Can't remember which one(s) I watched, but you can google stack and whack and find lots. The one I did was only 4 stacked fabrics and 2 diagonal cuts. So I ended up with 4 sections for each block. Somewhere I saw this. haha Good luck. You'll get it.

Well done.. I want to try that one day...

ConcreteSher 09-15-2011 10:58 AM

Beatiful - and I love the pieced back. I've made several S & W's from the book "Magic Stack-n-Whack" by Bethany Reynolds, and they always come out beautifully. I liked this book because it provides instructions for a variety of different kaleidoscope effects and different shapes of "whacks" to start with.

gmavis 09-15-2011 11:26 AM

Beautiful! I love how it turned out. Thanks for sharing.

mimee4 09-15-2011 12:14 PM

This is beautiful. And that is riding on a very slow pony.

Bonnie P 09-15-2011 12:50 PM

Pat yourself on the back you did a great job and such pretty fabric.

A Stack and Whack should have the same exact fabric on top of itself 4 layers deep. Then you take the 4 squares that you cut and arrange them to your liking. I've attached a picture of one I made into a table runner. Each 4 patch makes an all new picture from the original fabric. Sorry, I didn't take a picture of the original, but you can see it in the border.

Really nice! Good work!

gmajudy 09-15-2011 02:12 PM

You could slow the horse to a walk and you would still pass. I think it looks very, very pretty. :lol:

Fabricnut 09-15-2011 03:01 PM

It is very pretty and you did a great job. I personally
like the galloping horse theory.

Grandma Peg 09-15-2011 03:05 PM

Very pretty. Such soft colors.

almostfree 09-15-2011 05:08 PM

That is beautiful! I have bought many different fabrics for 4PP's....good excuse to get more fabric....but haven't had the nerve to try one. Where was that tutorial you watched??

Quilted Horse 09-15-2011 05:10 PM

Looks great. Your fabric worked perfectly. Sometimes, it's a trial and error on which fabrics will work.

lisajane 09-15-2011 05:44 PM

Very nice.

frog54 09-15-2011 06:28 PM
