thank you. It's a preprinted fabric but thought it would fit with pinwheels.

I have a lot of left over preprint blocks too, very good idea, and yours look really good with your pinwheels.

Thank you. It was a hard decision what to do. There are so many beautiful ideas here. Every time I would see another top here I would go again. :)

I love to see more pinwheel ideas!
Keep them coming.
Very nice blocks both of you.
:-D

I LOVE your black pinwheels. They have taken on a modern flair. When I first looked at them , I did not see the pinwheels. They are awesome! I may have another project in the works. ; )

I haven't been too active on this thread, but I did make a number of giant pinwheels, starting with 9 1/2 " sq so I will have a good sized quilt. I haven't gotten it together yet, but I'm thinking about how to do it. Thanks for this idea, I'd never have undertaken pinwheels without all the moral and practical support!

That's so clever, what a great way to use pillow panels. I may have another pinwheel project in the near future!

OK, I did this to finish up the last of the pinwheels...they are different sizes so just grabbed some stash and went for it...guess it didn't turn out too bad. Now I must get busy and sandwich & quilt & bind all these quilt tops I've emassed! No more quilttops till I do...

See topic "pinwheel challenge quilt top" to see what I did with my blocks--actually I have enough left over to make a baby quilt.

VickiM- You proved that it doesn't take much to make a sweet little quilt. You will be busy for a while. :-)

VickieM,
Thanks for suggestion. My blocks are scrappy and all different sizes. I like how each of yours are impportant.
