This is my favorite quilt so far. This is the orignal fabric, which is "stacked and whacked" to make the quilt. I also used this for the quilt backing.Here is a close up of the finished quilt.And here it is hanging in the stairwell.This one goes in the quilt show in the spring. The hardest parts of making a quilt like this are 1) finding a fabric that works (I think I did a marvelous job of that if I do say so myself; I was surprised how difficult it was), and 2) deciding on the layout of the blocks. Thanks to W for his help with that over a period of many days.

All done and the binding will be in the gray border fabric. I think the neat thing about a Kaleidoscope quilt is that you have to look at it a moment and then the circles begin to appear. I always love a scrappy value quilt, both making them and seeing them :) Pictures and comments in Piecing 2012 Set 1.
