I had a charm pack of vintage Thimbleberries prints and older Thimbleberry fabric to use up - so decided to try my hand at pinwheels. I had seen the tutorial on this site making them by cutting 5" squares into quarters. I was concerned about all those bias edges - but starched well and didn't have any trouble. I didn't have enough of the border fabric for the back - but was able to find some from one of our wonderful QB members. :D

Love your pinwheel. I am not good with small pieces. I need practice, practice and more practice.
