I think I have my final design in my head and just need a few more pinwheels then I hope to applique or embroider something in the white on white blocks between the pinwheels.
I'm also thinking of using the 2" of material I cut off the 10" blocks to make them 8" and sew those strips end to end to make a narrow border around the body of the quilt. I was thinking of a prairie border but that fabric is only 2" wide so that won't work. Also thinking of a piano border but I'm sure I won't have enough strips left for that so I think the multicolored border will do nicely.
:-D :-D

WOO HOO!!! I am done!!! Top is finished, now to put on the backing and decide how I will quilt it. I had limited yardage as I couldn't find yardage for the backing in the design I wanted so had to settle. I had a jelly roll, so I cut that up into scrappy lengths and used that for the border; will put a row in the backing also. Forgot to take a pic of the backing.
