This quilt has been on my to do list for at least 2 years, thank you Pinwheel Project for giving me the inspiration to get it moved over to my finished list.
I made 60 pinwheels and 60 sixteen patch blocks, the border was scrapped together from leftover fabrics and bits of blocks. The backing fabrics came from my stash, and I used a couple of orphan star blocks from other projects.
I had a ball (beach ball?) making this quilt!

dhanke your quilt is fabulous in all aspects, color, design and quilting. I love it. I have been quilting some quilts by hand and have got behind on my pinwheels but I will finish even if it is LATE yuck.

Love the black and white blocks! That's going to be stunning.
Dhanke: That is already stunning! I love the way it came out. You do great work!
Quilter 54: If you are talking about the participant list, you are on the one I have. I also have a quilter 53! Did I type wrong or do we have both? :-D
Today is day 65!
Company arrived last night so no sewing for me all week I don't think.
The rest of you, keep it up! Get those pinwheels made! We have some stunning quilts alreadyand I hope to see more.
:-D
