STIDed in the center seams of the pinwheels for stability,
then stippled in the backgrounds of the pinwheel blocks,
moving the vanes of the pinwheel back in their respective squares to stipple "underneath" them as far as I could get.
I don't really think I'd stipple that far underneath them next time.
All the inner background stippling is one continuous line.
In the blue borders I did over-and-under loop-de-loops.
Between the blocks and in the outer pieced border I did orange peels. The orange peel patterns in the outer pieced border are one continuous line each.
