I really want to make a pinwheel quilt next -- either lap size or crib size -- probably with a decorative border.

Does anyone have a favorite pinwheel pattern online they could share?

I am also wondering if there is an ideal size for the half square triangles. What size should the finished pinwheel block be for a lap size quilt? I don't want to go too small or too large.

My sister just bought an Accuquilt Go! I could use to cut the shapes. I am thinking I would really like to spray starch two fabrics right sides together and then run them through the Go! to make the half square triangles. However, what size half square triangle would be best? I doubt my sister has the right size, but I could order the die for the system. Otherwise I could cut squares and make the HSTs that way. Anyone have preferences?
