I like the way it looks.

For now it's in the orphan block box nestled next to my Disappearing Hourglass trial block in the same fabrics. Maybe they will become a table runner?[ATTACH=CONFIG]526172[/ATTACH]

I saw the video Saturday and Sunday I went to my "resource center" and chose layer cakes and made my pinwheel blocks. Now need to press and cut them up so I can sew them back together. I love the look of the block.

great idea to square it up. You have so many more placement options now.

That's a beautiful block! You did an awesome job! Table runner or quilt, either...just don't let it remain an orphan! :-)
