Watterstide. That sound like fun. Thanks for explaining. After my next bee, I'll try to do a photo of all the table runners that resulted from our two bee sessions. I made one charm pack table runner and one with the 10" blocks. The charm pack size is made of batiks and the other of Auntie Grace. They look so different but I love them both. One think I noticed about the batik: If you have big color sections in the uncut fabric, it can make a difference in how the pinwheel looks (mine looks like I have one wrong piece of fabric, but I decided that's how batiks go!)

Marymm, I made three projects, two of them twister quilts, with a layer cake of 30's fabric.

Can you tell us how many 5" charms you used (and the color layout) to achieve your "wreath" look?
Thanks!
