Kaleidoscope Stack & Whack Quilt

ilt (a.k.a. Kaleidoscope Quilt)

This was probably the most interesting quilt I've attempted. 

It was made in a class that was conducted 

at a quilt store which now no longer exists. 

We used Bethany S. Reynolds' 

Magic Stack-N-Whack Quilts

as our guide and purchased 

all our fabrics and 

tools (ruler) from 

the quilt store.

I chose an oriental theme for a focus fabric.

The repeats in the pattern of the fabric were segmented

and stacked on top of each other six times,

triangles cut from each set of six,

which were then pieced into a hexagon.

The resulting pattern for each

of the 18 hexagons in this quilt is unique.

 I've shown only 6 of them.

 I like the 'movement' in each block.

  The colours are incredible.

 I couldn't stop sewing this quilt because

my expectations kept on building.

It isn't until all the blocks are sewn

that one can appreciate the magic

that is created from one focus fabric.
