You're so right! that is what happened when I saw the buttons fabric I posted earlier. I wasn't even thinking about DKs at that time. but I saw that fabric and knew I had to see what it would do. LOL

I love to make the dresden Kaleidoscopes but I dont' make big quilts. I am a miniaturist mainly. I do make these into totes and hotpads and such.
But these are going into my online store /etsy/ebay.

It's hard to believe.........Super pretty. Will you put 'as is' fabric as the lining?

Very pretty. All from the same fabric and they all look so different.

LOL good to know someone thinks of me now and then. I did post a couple more things. I posted a Color Play using HSTs and I also posted another Dresden Kaleidoscope thread where the fabric looks like lots of buttons.
I'm usually around if only on my swaps I host. I also started my Scrap Club thread and the Scrappy Quilt Along thread. I am easily bored!! LOL
