    Girl they look great now got to work on mine.

    Down the right side are the scrappy quilts. I think someone was thinking of patches and pinwheels.

    If it's not too late, count me in. Got lots of purple fabric donated to me recently so this is the perfect way to use some of it . Finished quilts will go to the palliative care unit at our local hospital.

    OK we have 100!
    Welcome.


    I found the pattern for the elephant pinwheel if anyone is interested.

    :-D

    If you make it, you must show us!
    :-D
    That's the pattern. I can't find mine. So glad you did. Now I can make it too.
