It makes more sense with Barb's explanation of sewing all the pieces to make a spoke, then sew those together.

Feline Fanatic those Bella quilts are pretty, more modern looking than this Dahlia. Here's a link to a gallery of them http://www.bellabellaquilts.com/student.html

Madame Kelly I would love to see the McCall's one. Did you find the pattern number? I think it is the same as the one Martha mentioned http://vintagepatterns.wikia.com/wiki/McCall%27s_8473_A

Thanks everyone. I'm going to a quilt expo in Portland on Friday and I want to bring a pattern this time in case I find fabric I HAVE TO have. :)
That is the same pattern, just a newer version than mine with a higher copy number. Mine from 1982 and cost $2.75 new! Lol! The pattern number on mine is 610. I guess back then patterns had three numbers for the pattern number instead of the four they now use.
