Like a lot of quilters out there, I have projects started and not finished. Too many that I care to admit. One of them is the pinwheel sampler that I started last year in a quilt along. I had wanted to make it large enough for my bed and got discouraged. I put the whole thing away and haven't really thought about it.
It's been gnawing at me lately because I really want to get this finished because I love the fabrics I'm using. So I pulled it out yesterday morning. I told myself that I'm going to make all the pinwheels I can with all the fabrics that I have set aside for the project and that's that. If it fits my bed, great. If not, I'll use it elsewhere.
Here are the two blocks that I worked on.

I have a few more pinwheel blocks that I've decided I would like in my sampler so I'm going to work on getting the fabric cut for them. When I get the itch, I'll get them pieced. My goal is to have this top complete by the end of the year. I think I can handle that. :)
Enjoy your day!

sometimes it is hard to keep at it making a quilt large enough for a bed. I have made a lot of them though queen size and I'm always glad I did it when I get finished with them.
ReplyDeleteKeep at it and you can do it.
