    Hi Marcia photos of the block. Help needed i am not sure of the placements whether to mix or just do rows of the same color! Any suggestion would be very much appreciated :)




    marcias]capicine, picture of blocks, pls.? Congratulations and God bless you on your surgery.


    They both look nice. I think I like the way you mixed them better.

    David, I love your beach umbrella fabric....I wouldn't have thought to use it, but it looks great.

    This is my first pinwheel and it is the easiest block ever. I started with two five and one half inch blocks, right sides together and the unfinished block is 6 inches. I have lots of scraps so that is what I will make...a scrappy pinwheel quilt.
    Thanks to Susiequilt for the push to do this block. It's a lot of fun and I am getting some use of my scraps.

    That's perfect for your first pinwheel!
    It's a great way to use up scraps and you end up with a wonderful quilt!
