I like the second one, Lipstick Sunset 2.
Going to have to think about getting my design wall out in a few days to put all my pinwheels up!

I myself, prefer multi colors but with your striped fabric I think the one solid color or multi colors taken from the strip would either one make a fabulous quilt. Hope that makes sense and am anxious to see which you choose. Love that stripe fabric.

I love that stripe. I like using many colors with the stripe. Not sure if I like the stripe going out from the center, all the same direction or both. Probably one or the other.

I have found when using a directional fabric like a stripe, this is what happens when you make your triangle blocks. You can't escape how the design goes partly one way and part another. I think on this one it does not detract though and still looks very good.

Never thought of that! Guess it will give the quilt a sense of motion.

I would take multi colors taken from the stripe to make it very colorful.Make sure you keep us posted on your progress.

I like the idea of the different colors, picking up the colors of the stripes.
That's going to be lovely!
:-D

Wow! You did a great job. I hope it brings in lots of money for a very worthy cause.

Keep those pinwheels spinning!

I'm a topper, so 10 days is plenty of time. :thumbup:

Hey Ruby, love the colors. Can't wait to see it completed.

I lost track of how many pinwheel blocks I've made! So I'm assembling rows to see how many I still need to make. I have 3 rows of 8 blocks each put together so far.

Keep the pinwheels coming. :)
