    Default Boys Floating Pinwheels-Moda fabric

    This fabric was gifted to me by a member here, all but the blue backing and the white background. Lisa said it was an older line but I don’t mind and don’t think the kids will care either. It’s by Moda called Bartholo-meow’s Reef. I wanted to try to get this one made after I made the twins quilts I just posted, but I had a migraine for a few days and shut everything down. I didn’t buy the pattern in this link, but watched the video below to make it. I could not for the life of me, figure out how to continuously stitch the pinwheel without back tracking, in a few spots. I got it done by outline stitching around and through the center then stippling my white background and blue border. I wasn’t too pleased stitching it but it sure photographed well. I don’t think I took a picture I didn’t like-lol

    Thank you again Lisa, for helping some mom and her child be happy and warm.

    You dear lady are a genius! The majority of us never would have thought about outlining the blades. What a difference it made. I got my pattern out and wrote myself a note to try that the next time I make one. Thanks!

    Another great finish. Some child will love the bright colors and the various patterns. Love how you did the pinwheels.
