We have been set a challange by our quilt group to make a small illusions quilt!! Do any of you know where I can download the pattern - have watched plenty of vidios but I find it alot easier to read so that I understand what to do - thank you in anticipation

Only too glad to help!!! I got the book from Amazon at Christmas! Still haven't plucked up the courage to try it! The OBW fascinates me but the ammount of fabric required is a bit daunting!!! Keep us posted how you get on!!

Most of the Kaleidoscope/Wheel of Mystery blocks create an illusion when the light/dark is alternated. No books to buy and many free patterns on the internet. Also, many have few pieces per block so easier to reduce/enlarge.

I agree with you janedee. Did you ever find the pattern for the hollow quilt cube.?
