Oh, certainly!

I can't thank you enough for taking the time and the effort to allow all of us on the board to see those beautiful quilts. Sharing your trip with me makes me very grateful indeed.

It was in Woodridge - right down the street from Ikea. I had posted it on the board a few times but had no takers for a meeting.

The first one's "block" is made of six 9 patches, one on each edge of a large hexagon. There's an equilateral triangle between the 9 patches. That's all!

These are really lovely quilts! Thank you for sharing them with us, wish we could have gone with you to see them close up and personal. :-)

Agreed ... the more I looked at it the more I thought it could be constructed like a "double" OBW.
