OMG,!!! That is all I can say. I am speechless.

That looks awesome!!!

Wowzers!

Very nice, Lois! Congratulations on getting the top finished.

Donna

Wow, gorgeous!

that's always been one of my favorite techniques. It's like a work of art. Do you happen to have a picture of the fabric before you cut it up? I'd be curious to see what produced that combination of colors.

Thanks for you kind comments, everyone. Linda, I should have posted a photo of the original fabric. Here is one repeat. I bought an extra to use on the backing, but now I'm not so sure I want to. Thanks for reminding me to post it.

That is stunning!

August 28. 2015. You did post a picture of the fabric. I was curious when I saw the completed top and searched the forum. Search One Block Wonder

But it is nice to see it again.

That's amazing! TBH, I'm not all that enamoured of the original fabric, but your blocks are truly lovely.

It's fantastic! Another one added to my todo list.

That is a piece of art. Just amazing and beautiful.

Gorgeous! Love how One Block Wonders differ so from their original fabrics.

Another Lois masterpiece! Beautiful, just beautiful....

That is abosolute wonderful! I love it, too!

Your quilt is amazing! It inspires me to make one also. I won the book years ago in a shop hop and didn't think I wanted to make it. Now I do!

Thanks, everyone, for your kind comments. A One Block Wonder like this was quite an undertaking for me. Layering up six layers of fabric exactly on top of each other was daunting, but after that, making the hexagon halves was pretty straightforward. I didn't know how to start to "design" the quilt, but her book instructs you to separate the hexagons by color, thus creating a palette for your "art work." Then you start with one "color" and build out from there. I made a lot of changes before I settled on a final design.

I'm really disappointed that I don't have a wall big enough to hang the quilt. I suppose I could have made it smaller, but after all the work it took to make all those hexagons, I couldn't bear not using them. As it was, I had seven left over.

And I'm happy to report that after quilting and laundering, the quilt lays as flat as a pancake. I won't be gifting this one. It's mine! Maybe someday I'll have a place to hang it. Until then, I'll just cuddle in it.

I found a place to display my quilt. A quilting friend suggested that I hang it over the railing that leads from our front entry down to the door that goes to the lake. I get to see it all the time. I just have to make sure that the sun doesn't hit it too directly or too often. And I get to use it to cuddle whenever I want. I'm happy!

Perfect place!

Theresa

On display and handy, too. Good!

Nice! If that were my house, a cat would be attempting to hang on it very quickly.
