Please ignore the mistakes, I will rip them out and re-sew them before I sew the quilt together!

I like #1 too. I am actually starting another one using layer cakes. Am making a charity quilt and thought this would be a fun and fast way to do it. It will give me a chance to practice with my new long arm.

I like #1 layout the best.....nice work!

I kind of like #1 also.
It's going to be great no matter which layout you use.

Good idea Grann of 6. The pinwheels will make a great charity quilt and the more you use your long arm the better your quilts will be.

I'm not using sashing between my blocks but I am using a blank square between them just cause I like it!

Today is day 67! I sent the company off on a long bike ride then to Bathtub reef for most of the day so I have one row of pinwheels sewn together! I'll keep at it until they come back.
I'll get there.
:-D

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.

Nice looking quilt, the black and white border gives it a more contemporary look, using half blocks in the border is a great idea.

Here is the fabric I going to use for my pinwheel project. Do think using only one color with the striped for the entire quilt or does several difference colors?
