I love your twister. I just finished a small one using 30's fabrics but while I like it ok I'm not totally pleased with the fabric and color placement. When I see yours I see it in a whole new light that really makes it sing with the colors and
placement. When I started reading others' replies I saw your layout. Thank you so much for sharing it and your quilt. I was thinking there was no way I was going to make another Twister. You have just changed my mind and given me the encouragement to try again. That is what is so wonderful about this board -- everyone shares and inspires us to want to try something new or re-try something we thought was just not for us.

I have been interested in making a little twister quilt - in fact, bought the template last week. Didn't know there were two sizes. What size did you use on your quilt? I bought the small template but am now wondering if I should have gotten the large.
Your quilt is beautiful. What size is it?

I will usually bring a twister out the kitchen with my cutting mat and put it on my island. That way I can get around 3 sides easily.
