Good day, and welcome to my blog.
My last project is now a top, and is folded up, awaiting its turn to go to the long arm quilter. A look on the shelf near my sewing machine resulted in the excavation of a gallon plastic bag full of triangles, and a pattern:
That is the Pinwheel #8 pattern, from the Quilters Cache. The date at the bottom of the printout was 2008, and a search of my blog indicated that I had worked on a pinwheel pattern in 2009. This traditional pattern makes a 10 inch block (finished) and looks great in 30's reproduction fabrics. A really old UFO (Unfinished object)!
As I counted the triangles, I mentally counted how much white background I would have to buy. But a look in my messy sewing area uncovered about 4 yards of Kona Snow solid that works perfectly.
And four blocks together:
I have about 24 blocks done now, and I still have cut triangles left. I am aiming for 30 or 35 blocks and a 5 by 6 or a 5 by 7 block setting. I will also have sashing in between the blocks. I must consider a border too. I am sure I have something in the sewing area!
