    Drum roll please!

    Ta Dah! Today is day 78! The end of our pinwheel project.
    Everyone should have their 78 blocks, or however many your goal was, finished!
    Now, if you haven't already, get those blocks put together and not tucked away hiding!

    I'm sure lots of you are not finished but that's OK. Keep plugging away and before you know it, you will be done!
    It's been a lot of fun.
    I hope to continue to see pictures of your great quilts. I finally got my camera working I think. Now if I can just get a picture on here soon I will.
    Thanks for joining me!


    :-D :-D :-D

    I didnt make 78 pinwheels only around 50-60. I only used part of them in this small quilt. Here's a pic of the blocks on my design board and 2 of the QAYG blocks that are done. The true colors don't come thru real well on the camera but I'm pleased with the results.

    thank you. It's a preprinted fabric but thought it would fit with pinwheels.

    Wow...what a great idea! I have panels that are meant to be for pillows, never thought to use them inbetween pieced squares. Will do that for sure now...yours looks lovely.
