Call of the Sea – OBW #97 from If These Threads Could Talk

My favorite panels to make OBW’s with are by Josephine Wall.

Call of the Sea panel measured 35″ x 43″. I cut 3.25″ strips which yielded 5″ finished hexies.

I created a barrier reef for my mermaid using Studio 180 Design’s Star 60 tool, along with Quad 60, Framed 60, Capped 60, Checkerboard 60 & Hollow Cube 60 (not yet released) Technique sheets. My Island Batik stash is like having the BIG box of crayons. They are my go-to batiks to add color and interest to my OBW’s and all my quilts.

Chrysanthemum Quilt from If These Threads Could Talk

For the last year and half I been experimenting with Deb Tucker’s Star 60 Tool and adding stars and cubes to One Block Wonders (OBW).

I wanted to see what the Chrysanthemum block looked like as a quilt.

Holy guacamole, someone make me a margarita! This quilt just makes me smile and think of a fiesta.
