    Default Bright Pinwheels finished

    I finished Bright Pinwheels last night including an embroidered label (a first for me.) Today I washed it and tomorrow I will deliver it to my friends who are gifting it to their new great nephew. I wasn't really sure about the mother's choices of color, but it grew on me as I worked on it. This is my first paid quilt job so I am really hoping they like it.

    Chairjogger - I did SID through the pinwheels and 1/4" from the edge of the first border. I used a poly batting so did not quilt beyond the prairie points. I love doing prairie points and may have to find another pattern to use them.
