I hope we have the same number finishing!
If you can't do one a day at least try to average one a day!
:-D

I haven't started yet. Maybe I'll get some squares cut out so I'll be ready for tomorrow.
:-D

What type quilting will you all do/have done on pinwheels?

I spent more time spray starching & ironing than I did sewing. I can see that ONE pinwheel per day will just about fit my capabilities.

Oh well :roll:
