I put them on a wall hanging most of the time but have clips I can use too.

I always put a sleeve or the 1/2 square corners so the WH can be hung.

Hi every one. Hope all is well for you this spring. Since my WH is complete I am working on the 1998 pinwheel and just have to share the progress.

My favorite block, I think.

I am anxious to finish this one.
peace

Wish I had a pool these days. I miss my old pool. Have fun getting wet and keeping cool this summer.

I am using my 2 1/2" scrap pile and making HSTs and trimming them down to 1 3/4"sq using the Bloc-Loc ruler. Sew four HSTs together and the block is 3" sq. After they are all pieced together the block finishes at 2 1/2"sq.

After trimming with the ruler all the seams are pressed open so there is less bulk in the center. The blocks are 100% better than what I did with them in 1998.

There will be 800 pieces in the main body of the quilt and I haven't planned the borders yet, if any. I still have some playing to do with this one!
peace

That would go so much faster with one of my 1 3/4" templates Ube. I can send you one if you want to try it to see if you like it or not.
