Great job! I have one in the closet, and there it sits. Everyone I've seen I like but not mine> I'll post sometime and let you all look at it. Yours is very attractive. I like the border.

That turned out great. I often quilt with multicolored thread. I never thought about using different colors for different parts of the design. What a brillant idea.

Why don't you like it JCL? Please post it. It's funny because I didn't like this one much until it was altogether, because it's not the colours I would normally go for. I am sure we will all like yours.

Not so much brilliant as that I really couldn't decide on red or orange in the border, so did both & added the yellow to finish off!.

I've been looking today for more fabric for another obw, and currently have the "shortlist" down to about 20 - there are so many beautiful fabrics out there - it's all decisions!! Everyone is so right about "the addiction" of these.
Hah! I have you beat! I've already purchased 12 pieces of fabric that are perfect for OBWs in the future. I have no idea when they will become a reality tho. Butterflies, fish, horses, snow mammals, leaves, Oriental floral, chickens, chili peppers & peppercorns on bay leaves, several florals and an abstract print.
