You appear to be very familiar with 3D pinwheel quilts....do you know about their care afterwards? Do they hold up well after washing and drying?
This is actually my first 3-D quilt...just did a lot of practicing...my first couple were "wonky" and not lined up very well. However, my technique has improved after making this quilt. I have never washed one, but since I am also curious, I just washed one of my first blocks and threw it in the dryer to see how it does. I even wrung it out! I'll take a picture when it is done!

Here's a picture of a practice block after washing, wringing out and tossed in the dryer. Seemed to do pretty well!

Thank you for posting that as I am working on one too and used the white eyelet like you did. Sharon from Chicago inspired me with her quilt with the eyelet and I love your quilt as well as the one on this post. I love the multi-colors and borders too!
