This is the fourth block for the We Can Do It! Skill Builder Sampler, a pinwheel block. I don't know why, but I didn't want an almost entirely white block in my quilt (at least not yet) so I used mostly patterned pieces. Here it is!
It took quite a while, but I love the way it turned out. I'm especially proud of my seams on this one...particularly here
So, so beautiful... I love the pattern and the fabrics that you chose for it! I have been wanting to jump into quilting for a while now, but the tension on my sewing machine is broken. BUT, I just ordered a new machine this week, so I am hoping to actually take the plunge once I get it! :) Do you know of any good online resources for a quilting newbie?
Oh, I love this block! It's very nautical :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat job matching up those points! =) Looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI love your block, it really stood out in the Flickr group. And your points are perfection! I haven't made mine yet, but I wont use white either.

ReplyDeletenice! i love the addition of the polkas!
ReplyDeleteI love how yours turned out! I'm going with orange, blue and green so it looks completely different. I love how yours doesn't have a solid!
ReplyDeleteLove your fabric choices on this block!
