Default D. Pinwheel mini

I decided to try a Dissappearing Pinwheel in miniature. I started with 5 inch squares. I wanted to see how the bias edges would work in a smaller format and the stretch allowed me to match the points quite well. It will probably end up being a cute hot pad.[ATTACH=CONFIG]573555[/ATTACH]

I just made the 9-Patch Swap as a mini with scraps. used 2 1/2 inch squares instead of 5 inch squares. Fun once but probably won't try again.

Looks good, as your work generally does. My experiments generally end up as hot pads too.

it's amazing how the negative looks so differently from the positive

That will be a very cute hotpad or whatever you decide. Bias does help with matching points, but is fraught with difficulties. You've done well!
