niiiiice!
i have some questions:
:arrow: what is the size of the template?
:arrow: what is the size of the blocks that you sewed together first? are they the same?
:arrow: did you arbitrarily choose the 3/4" in from the corner, or is that a given measurement?

After I had finished it off the best way I could, I found that I had dropped the second last row on the floor and didnt realise - I then unpicked it and made it up properly. Give you an idea how messy my floor is when I am in the middle of a project
I got the pattern from the Australian Patchwork & Quilting 1998 Yearbook. More than happy to send it to you.

That's the same concept as the Twisted pinwheels(?) from Country Schoolhouse in Superior, WI. The little leftover aquares can be used in another project. I loved the project and found cutting the individual squares and leaving them on the cutting mat until assembly was the trick for me to assemble in order and with ease! A fun project to be sure.
Thanks for sharing your ideas!!!
