This is the charity quilt I made for my son(a Forest fire fighter)for the 4th Annual Redmond IHCGolf Tournament: Saturday, May 21 9:00 am- 8:00pm. Eagle Creek resort: 1522 Cline Falls Road, Redmond, Oregon. If your in the area drop in and have a good time. They are having a silent auction, and a BBQ also.

This quilt was quilted by Cindy Russel, a local long arm artist, of Angel Heart quilting and things. She donated the quilting, and she did a really good job.

Beautiful quilt.

Thank you all for your lovely comments. I had so much fun planning it. The pin wheels are Eleanor Burns strip piecing double windmills or pinwheels, really easy to do.

Thanks Gladdie, knew you would like it with all the blue in it.

It's a really easy pattern, but I don't think I can give the specifics for the windmills it is Eleanor Burns's strip pieced pinwheels, someone let me know if I can give out the pattern. The irish chain block is a 9-patch (8" finished- I strip piece it. 41/2 inch middle piece and 21/4 in strip on each side(this is middle set) cut I 41/2 in strip for each 9p you think you need. Then make another strip set wit a white 41/2 in strip with a 21/4 in blue strip on each side, cut these into a 21/4 in strip, you need two cut for each 9p you need. Sew all these together in your nine patches. Then you alternate 9p's with pinwheels and sash. do sashing in a strip set also, 8 inch white with a 21/4 in blue on each side, and sub-cut into 21/4 inch strips. So the quilt is very easy to do and very fast.

Let me Know about the Eleanor Burns issue, I can do a tutorial if you like.
