    OMG K that came out beautiful!!! The only one that notices the points don't match on one square will be YOU! I can not believe how much you got out of the one piece of material. I Love it and you did it justice girl!!! It came out spectacular!!! love the border color you used.
    It was my pleasure to give you pleasure. So glad you love it enough to keep it too!

    PS. Just read your last remark. LMAO you forgot to take a picture of the fabric before. It still is beautiful!

    Hugs girl!

    Thanks Penny - yes, I'm a twit! I need to put a sticker on my OBW ruler - TAKE PHOTO! :lol:

    Sula - I thought you'd have done by now, what ya waiting for? :wink: :D

    Seriously though, my next one is another Asian style fabric, inspired by this one but more muted shades of maroon, turquoise and gold; I'm dying to get cracking on it but I WILL remember a pic of the fabric! :shock: :lol:

    They're great aren't they? My uncle has some and they eat the food right out of your hand - they're so tame and beautiful too! :D

    Wow! This is an inspiration. I have some material that is so beautiful I hate to cut it. I love looking at it, is that weird or what? But....... this just may be the thing to do with it.

    HI Glad Grams - I just got through saying to someone on another thread about how it's NOT weird to have 'pet' fabric! I have some I can't bear to cut too! But OBWs are great fun and it's amazing the effects you can get so I'd say go for it! :D

    Beautiful, as usual!! I am really going to have to try doing one of those. I'm just a little intimidated about the fabric folding part.
