My daughter fell in love with this pattern. We have picked out three fabrics to make the pinwheels out of and one for the border. We cut the squares 10" and will use the 8 1/2" (I think) to make the primary pinwheels. She wants it to be at least a queen or a little bigger. Right now I am planning on about a 13 x 13 layout for the first sewing. I think I read someplace that the first sewn piece would shrink about 30%. I am going to try to be very careful when cutting so I can get smaller ones to use in the outer border.
Any thoughts about my plan?
