for Project QUILTING Challenge – Eight is Great

My piece includes many types of eights starting with the Beatles' Eight Days a Week (8 rays of the sun), eighth letter of the alphabet, 8 is a cardinal number, classic Magic 8 Ball, traditional pinwheel block, eighth letter of Greek alphabet - theta, Roman numeral 8 and a figure 8.

The 8 blocks are in the 8 colors found in a box of Crayola classic markers, in the order of the color wheel if you  travel in a figure 8  (yellow, orange, red, violet, blue, green then brown and black).  The piece measures 8 inches wide and 18 inches long thus the name 8 by 8 by 8!
