WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much. I have wanted to do a kaleidoscope for so long without doing the stacking fabric on repeats, your tute is just what I have been looking for. You have helped me so much, I can't tell you how much. Thanks again. Have a great day

Questions: what book are you referring to?
Is there a pic of this pattern? Isn't a kaleidoscope block done with triangles? This process is very close to Bethany Reynold's Stack n Whack system or even the One Block Wonder, that is layering the fabric to keep the repeat pattern the same on each folded piece.....I guess it will work with any piece of a block one would like to be identical in each block. |

You can sew and iron the paper version just like the fabric. This way you can test out your fabric without having to cut it. You can play with finding good places on the paper version before committing to the fabric. |
Thank you for sharing.
