… almost.
The last two round prompts for the quilt along have been revealled and like all previous rounds, I decided to combine them
My plan was to get it all done by the end of the weekend. But it’s something that would require at least two days of sewing. And of course, Dave changed my plans for Saturday, so that left me only Sunday to sew.
One of the prompts was pinwheels, and since that was the easiest for me, I tackled them first. I needed 16 to do the design I had in mind. With the fabrics I had left, I decided to do two different versions.

There are many different style of pinwheels, but I think this one is my favourite. Especially when you have contrasting fabrics that really pop with each other.
Next up was square-in-a-square. This one gave me a chance to use a ruler Mom gave me for Christmas. It’s designed to help you make perfect square in a square.

I had to improvise a little because not only was I making square, in a square, in a square, in a square… but the ruler only goes up to 6 inches, and my blocks are 8 inches.
But I managed one. I still need seven more, but I ran out of time. The rest of the blocks, and then border assembly will have to wait for another day.
And that day may be a while… as I’m planning to head off to Mom’s this weekend, and I probably won’t get much of a chance to sew before then.

“You’re going where?!?!?!?”
Pretty designs. I’ve always like pinwheels and the square in a square…in a square…etc. is so cool!

Beautiful blocks but Lord Burton is NOT a happy camper. I think you will have to check for a stowaway because he obviously does not want Mom gone. 🙂

Those blocks are so beautiful! The great contrast of your fabrics just make them more spectacular. Maybe LB would like to go on a road trip?
