I am experimenting with the "Twister" tool. The after result looks very different from the before. Preety neat little tool although there is some fabric wasteage. I am wondering how I should quilt these.

These are great! What is the twister tool?

Yes, what is the "twister"? That looks so cool.

Very pretty quilts :D:D:D

This was made from a tool called "Twister by CS Designs" . It comes in two sizes for use with 5 inch or 10 inch blocks. You sew the blocks together and then cut out squares using this tool. It creates a pinwheel effect. Others on this board have done them. Search "twister" and you will see some very nice examples.

It is so cool - the second design looks like a wreath - oooo the possibilities. Where did you discover the twister and let us know more please.

Very pretty.

LOVE them, I want to know more !!!

Terrific results
I've had both Twisters for a long time
Never used
You've inspired me
Thanks

I'd quilt the inner border on the outside, around the outer edge of the pinwheels and around the outer edge of the white pinwheels.
I can't tell the size, but if necessary, I'd put a design in the center of the white space.

Very nice!

What size does each twister tool end up being when finished ?? I noticed that come in differant size tools..

That is awesome, I bought that pattern this past week and it is on my agenda for this weekend!!
Beautiful work!!

Very different and I really like it.

What a cool way to use the tool. My avatar was my first and I've got a top put together using the 10" blocks. Very fun!

Love your blocks...........guess I need to check out this NEW TOY..... Thanks for sharing.

Cool, looks like a wreath.

cool.I have it but have not tried it yet

Such beautiful blocks, I like the before and the after. You are doing a great job. Please show us when it is finished.

Gorgeous! I have both the small and the large and hope to get to work on doing one of these over my Christmas break :)

I love it! Nice job.

Can you show what the tool looks like? I googled but didn't see a picture. Was this a specific pattern you got to make with the tool?

Wow, these blocks are really beautiful!

That is so cool - thanks for sharing with us.

Those are great.

Very nice!

Love it!! I have looked for the twister tool but haven't found one. Do you know where I can order one?

You can see a picture of it at this blog:

No particlular pattern, I just followed the instructions on a couple of blogs I read. It's really funa and easy.

I just went to my LQS and they have never heard of it either so she asked me to e-mial her a link so she could ck it out....maybe she will get them and offer class!!!

Great!

I actually just bought the twister yesterday. I had originally bought the large one but took it back today and traded it for the small one. I have 5 charm packs and want to use those up before buying a bunch more fabric. :-)

Meant to tell you that all three pictures are very pretty. :-)

Looks like fun!

oooooo...love that!!! 8-)

Those blocks are so pretty.

These are so pretty. Guess a Twister is next on my list of things I need.

I am soooo telling my sons that I need one for Christmas..

wow that is a change, i will have to check on the tool and get one. thanks for sharing

Beautiful blocks.

how did you use that twister tool...how did it end up looking that way? Very impressive

Whoa, that is wild.

The Twister tool is great, I have both. I made the Christmas Wreath using the small one. I want to use the one for 10" blocks using 30's fabric for my next quilt.
