OK, tell this dummy what an OBW is. (I've never seen more beautiful fabrics, and I lived in Japan for a year!)

Your not a dummy sometimes these short forms make me think as well. OBW stands for a One Block Wonder. Cut a certain way from one piece of fabric. Google it and you will know what I mean.

Hoffman picks a fabric each year and runs a quilt contest based on that fabric. This year's fabric was kinda boring, in that it didn't have so many colors in it. But the 2011 fabric is better in that regard.

Here's a link to a page on Hoffman's site, to tell you all about the quilt challenge: http://www.hoffmanchallenge.com/challenge2011.html

Those are so fabulous! I would love to get my rotary cutter into some of them and go to town! The only hard part would be deciding on a pattern and sticking to it. I just know that my sewing machine would love to work on them.
