    That is great! I wish my mind worked that way. When I see something like this, it clicks, but I can never come up with it on my own!

    Kim, thanks for the link to you tute.
    I just finshed a quilt top that had a million triangles and squares to match up. This will be so much fun!!
    I need a fun project after the last one :)

    I think if you use 1" or 3/4" for all the sides you wouldn't get the twirling look (or not as much of a twirling effect). Just my opinion.
