    A friend and I have started making pinwheel quilts. I love having someone to keep me motivated! This is the first time I've attempted piecing beyond a strip type of quilt so it's been a little intimidating but I'm liking the results.

    I fell in love with these fabrics in the store but they aren't colors I'd normally use for myself.

    No actual blocks sewn. Just laying them out to see how it would look

    My first finished block!

    Nice job! The colors are rich and vibrant and you will love the results when it is all put together. I agree - it is so fun to have a sewing partner encouraging you in your creativity.
