I finished this up last week, but forgot to post a picture.
Preview of things to come: I had some nice left-overs from the first wonky rail fence quilt from the Cultural Fusion book. I was using mostly red and yellow French prints that I bought from French Connections, here in NC. When I saw them in NYC, I bought a few more FQ.
I had a picture of a quilt, credited to www.materialobsession.com called "Fractured", that I had saved oh, so long ago. The other day, a friend showed me a copy of the very same picture. So, I went to a file of "saved ideas" and managed to put my hands on it. THAT'S what I'm doing with the left-overs!
This one's a little more involved than Sujata's idea. Because they are 9-patches, it isn't just a matter of making the same block over and over or making mirror images. I was getting mixed up, so made myself pictures using my old version of EQ. And remember, these are left-overs, so by necessity the individual blocks are only 3". I've got a handle on it now and when my mailman brings the next fat quarters .....
