    I want to share my pieces. that are called "New Orleans Puzzle" on the west coast. A lot of you seem to have found them called "Star Spin". I really love the outcomes since chosing the fabrics can be a puzzle. The colors are suppose to graduate from light to dark but I can't seem to get that to work.

    Looks like something else to add to my "to do" list. Those are really cool!

    While this piece looks to have 4 sections done in one set of fabrics & the other 4 sections another, they are all made from the same strip set. They are cut out by turning the template up & down. If you look at them closely, you can see where the wide strip on one edge is the tiny one on the other.

    Wow! I really like that. I've never heard this pattern called by that name but I'm pretty sure if it were to be made by anyone in New Orleans they would be either black and gold (Go Saints!) or purple, green, and gold (Mardi Gras colors).

    Another project added to my to-do list..... thanks for sharing!

    :D
