    Default Twister Christmas Tree

    This little Twister Christmas tree did not turn out quite like I wanted. I didn't get the angle quite right on my ruler but it is still cute. I wanted to see how small I could do one and the blocks ended up at 1and 1/2 inches sewn together. My 18 inch ruler is laying beside it in the picture. It certainly cured my need to go smaller on the Twister idea!

    So, if I understand you right, you're NOT going to try to go any smaller? Oh my goodness! This turned out very nice!!

    The Itty Bitty Primitive Pinwheel Tool will give you 1" finished squares if you wanted smaller.

    No, there will be no smaller pieces in my future! Itty Bitty can be for someone who has steadier nerves than me. I thought I was going to be missing a fingertip with this one but managed to come away bandaid free.
