| Before the twister magic |
What happens when it's FNSI, cyberquilters (yahoo group - it's free to join, check it out, lots of fun) have a twisting weekend and daughter number 4 needs a baby quilt in less than 2 weeks for a baby shower?? Well this happens of course. I found some cute girly fat quarters, cut them into 6.75 in squares with a 4 in border. Sewed it all together. Then cut up the pinwheel blocks which are 5 in. I used the scraps from cutting in the first border. One more border to add and the top will be done. Hmmm but what about the quilting? I'm thinking a cute little whimsical curlieque in each of the pinwheel arms. Any other thoughts?
Stop by Heidi's to see what everyone else worked on last night.

Wow that's really cute! I love the secondary look. I agree a swirl in each pinwheel will look adorable or half feather.
ReplyDeleteOh, this came out so cute! I have the large top using a layer cake ('Puttin on the Ritz'), but can't manage the template cutting - will have to wait a little longer for the fingers to heal.
ReplyDeleteToo cute! You work is always excellent.

ReplyDeleteI had to laugh earlier today I was trying to figure out how many blocks to add for a baby quilt to use my twister square and I took a break to read email and found the answer! Thank you so much for your help! This is why I blog. Your awesome so is the quilt, hope mine turn out as nice!
ReplyDeleteSue, I love this Twister Quilt. I did some checking and I see that the "template" comes in two sizes.. One for 5" square and one for 10" squares. Since you said you cut your fabric in 6+" squares, which template did you use? Thanks in advance for such great inspiration.
