pinwheel quilt top

Finally finished the quilt top, yay! Next I will piece the back, then put all the layers together.

quilt backing

I found a lovely print at The Needle Shop for the backing of my pinwheeel quilt. It has all the colors from the patterns on the front, plus a zig-zagging gray design that intersects the organic elements. Yay!

Pinwheel Quilt Progress

Here is the progress I've made on my new full-size quilt. First the quilt blocks ready to be sewn, then the first finished block. There will be 72 of them! So glad to be done cutting out tiny bits of fabric and on to the piecing. I ran out of black fabric, so some of the blocks will have a different pattern on the dark triangles. This doesn't bother me too much, as I think mismatching is part of the charm of a patchwork quilt. I hope!
