    Okay, this is my 1st pinwheel. I'm not great at sewing so it took a long time (4 hrs). Hopefully the next will go a lot quicker. If not, I won't be done until next year. :roll:

    WooHooooo!

    Okay, here's what I have. I need to play with the layout a little, I think. Some of the blocks need to be moved around. But I can see better through the camera than just standing there. Here are 2 different angles. Opinions please.....

    You're too funny David. It's like someone said earlier, it's like eating potato chips, you can't do just one. And I am a potato chip fanatic. I live alone and it is quiet here for a change. If I did just one a day I would end up losing interest half way through and it would NEVER get done. :roll: :lol:

    3rd row second and third blocks. I'd get them away from each other.
    I love it! Nice random selection of fabric.
    I always drive myself crazy moving blocks before I sew them together.
    :-D

    Yes, I noticed that one and the one on the other lower corner. I need to have the lights blend a little, I think.
