    I like the pinwheels all around, but have you thought about making the black border wider, and letting the pinwheels be the outside edge?

    IMHO I think it looks very balanced with the pin wheels going all around the center. They do not detract form the focal object. It looks great.

    I just noticed that the pinwheels going down the left side of the panel gets cut off at the bottom. It may be because of how you have the next block layed down. I love your quilt. Whatever you do, it will be treasured.

    How about 1/2 pinwheels on the side, butting up to a plain strip, either along the existing sashing or outside edge?

    I think it's great the way it is, but if you want to break up the pinwheels alternate them with a solid, as someone else suggested,or alternate with a paw square of some sort. I don't think anything floral would go with this theme.

    I love the center panel. Nice quilt!

    Adorable quilt. I like it better without the pinwheels on the side but depending on how big you want to make it, I would put the border on and put a pinwheel in each of the corners. Do take a picture of the finished project... PLEASE! !
