Wow, that is wonderful. I agree with a previous posting it takes on the look of a painting

I love the four patch posie technique. I have several, they are addicting! You will look at fabric differently now. great job!

It's where you take a fabric that has a busy pattern to it, then cut wedges or shapes out of it in exactly the same place on the fabric, then put them together. So you stack fabrics that have the same pattern on them, then cut them. Check out the book, it might be easier to see from there.

W O W ! Beautiful! Love each block and the design movement it gives. You did a great job!

What do I think? Gorgeous!!! I've been dying to do that technique but it won't be for quite a while yet - too many irons in the fire.

That is so tropical and fun looking. I love your kaleidoscope patterning - very striking.

nativetexan 01-25-2010 03:46 PM

that is fabulous!!! great pics too, very clear. helps others who want to make this quilt see the beauty of fabric.
strips cut and squares cut from those. very easy to do.no wedges, just squares.

It's beautiful. I love the bright colors. It is similar to a Stack and Whack but uses only four layers of fabric. I used to teach Stack and Whack at the quilt shop I worked at.

Sandra Craig 01-25-2010 06:23 PM

I love it

mumtoliam 01-25-2010 09:04 PM

Honey 01-25-2010 09:42 PM

OOOHHHHH! Very pretty. I love the colors! The finished product will be beautiful!

ljsunflower 01-25-2010 10:50 PM

That's beautiful! Now, tell us where you got the fabric at & how you made that gorgeous creation! Please??

sewsilly 01-26-2010 12:16 AM

LOVE IT!!! This goes on my list of to-do's. Now off to find a suitable fabric.

Joanofpa 01-26-2010 05:30 AM

So pretty, it reminds me of a kaleidoscope!

KarenBarnes 01-26-2010 07:58 AM

Fun blocks! I love that you used the yellow to make it pop!

Rose Marie 01-26-2010 08:08 AM

Love your quilt. Was it done with the mirror method?

Mrs Otis 01-26-2010 08:12 AM

No I stacked 4 repeats of the fabric and then cut blocks. Then when I took a stack of 4 they are cut all the same. Then you turn then to what you like keeping the blocks rotated the same way. Thanks for asking

SewExtremeSeams 01-26-2010 08:12 AM

Gorgeous! I like the way you placed the design of your fabric. Bright is my favorite.

fsmcm 01-26-2010 11:41 AM

I love this. I have the same fabric (Michael Miller - Gerbera Garden) and did a large block quilt, but a fellow quilter had told me it would be a great four-patch posie...and since I still have 2 yards...I'm really glad to see it made up. Thanks so much for sharing. Beautiful!!

lass 01-26-2010 11:51 AM

Very nice fussy cutting! Love the colors.

reginalovesfabric 01-26-2010 01:06 PM
