MSQC Disappearing Pinwheel 5
 

Jenny posted a new quilt using layer cake squares which are 10 inches. I did my block with 10-1/2 inch squares because I wanted the finished size to measure 12-1/2. This made my total block 12-1/2 X 13-1/2 when finished. Jenny left hers in rectangles but I trimmed to 12-1/2 square and it looks interesting but I don't know if I want to do a whole quilt. For now it's in the orphan block box nestled next to my Disappearing Hourglass trial block in the same fabrics. Maybe they will become a table runner?[ATTACH=CONFIG]526172[/ATTACH]

I sewed several blocks to try it out. My neighbor saw them on my design wall and said "those sure must have taken a lot of time to make. All those little pieces to sew to make a design." She doesn't sew at all, she scrapbooks.

Very interesting ... I like the look of that block

Love it. BrendaK

I saw the email sent but haven't had a chance to watch it yet. Love the colors.

I watched the video yesterday, and promptly added it to my "to do" list! I think the whole quilt, in various colors, would be beautiful.

I really like your block. Love the fabric! Today, I finished making the 42 blocks for the Jenny Doan Disappearing Pinwheel # 5; but haven't started sewing them together. I left my blocks the rectangle size. The blocks were fun to make; but I am not excited about matching the seams sewing them together.

I happened to be browsing "pinwheels" on youtube on Friday and found that video. It looks like a lot of fun. Your fabrics are sure pretty. That lilac is so elegant.

Very nice looking block.
