It's my daughter's turn for me to make her a quilt. She's 10 years old. I wanted something uncomplicated, so she chose pinwheel blocks, designed it (she wants rainbow colors), and helped choose fabrics from my stash. I'm going to have her help as much as possible. Now we're going to get started!

What fun! Keep us posted as you go:)

Oh, she is beautiful and she looks very happy to get started! The design will work out perfectly from your fabric that you've selected. And a new quilter is born!!

May you have many, many years of quilting together.

Looks to me like she's doing an awesome job ... maybe a future quilt designer in the making????

The colors and fabrics look great. Have fun. There is a tutorial on cutting triangles that make, making pinwheels easier. :thumbup:
