What did you put in the center of each 3D pinwheel. I am afraid to put a button on a baby quilt, but something needs to be in the middle. I can't quite make out what you used. I've been practicing makeing them and now feel ready to make a quilt.

Next time, I would do one or the other. Probably machine tacking the center of pinwheel on seam is what I would do next time. Can't wait to see yours. They are so fun to make and go pretty fast.
