first one is to atkinson designs, their pattern name is "pinwheel puzzle" and the first time i made this pattern, it felt just like that. this time around, though, it's much easier. and the second is to bonnie hunter. see these little scrap triangles? bonnie would have turned them into an astounding scrappy piece but mine are (gulp) getting tossed. they are just way too small for me to work with; anything that is smaller than a 1.5" square goes and these are no exception. sorry bonnie; i am a true believer, i really am, but not with pieces this small. **** also pictured is the pinwheel puzzle so far, just have to add in a few border pieces and it can be sewn together. i am liking this pattern. i see one in batik scraps, don't you? ***** no fans or air conditioners here today, it's 62 and breezy...wheeee! no sun, but no problem at all!

I'm a sucker for anything purple and green--I even wrote a post about it once. These pinwheels are very fun. How large will this quilt be?
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the small stuff. There is a limit to how tiny of scraps I will save.
