    Jenniky, I love your paisley block. Like Sulabug said it sure looks like a OBW.
    djmat, I like your block. I think it has a modern appearance. Spent yesterday at the ball field watching grandson play so today I play!

    I don't know why you would call it ugly.. I think it looks grand.

    Thanks Mimi and Sula.... OBW is probably the name of the technique Im using. with the stacking. It is a really fun to see what comes out .

    Not very fond of Steeler Nation colors, thought daughter would want more colors than yellow, black, grey & white in this quilt. I have to add 12 more ugly blocks to make the queen layout that she wants. Glad I'm halfway through!
    At least I'm learning new techniques. Thanks, Jen!!!

    Djamat - The colors are nice, just don't think of them as Steelers colors.

    Thimblebug I like the floating planet. It's a happy block.

    I'm cheating a little, this is the one I did for the Craftsy class last year I still haven't done anything with it. I may make another one in a different style. I used scraps for the blades, the pepper fabric was from a shirt I made my DH last year also.

    WOW you're all so fast!

    Jenniky, I love your paisley block!
    Djamat, I don't see anything ugly, I love it!
    Thimblebug, yours is beautiful too! Like Dedemac said, it's floating!
    Dedemac, I love your different style. It looks like it's rotating!

    Oh I understand then.... Hard to work with colors you are not fond of. I have experienced the same.
