After all the lack of confidence about doing the little Propeller blocks (Whirlygigs - I call them) - here they are and I stitched them on the machine. The Wedding Chain block, I showed you recently, I stitched that by hand. Rita from Red Pepper Quilts gave me a few very helpful tips - thanks, Rita! I love Pinwheels and Whirlygigs in a quilt as they create movement!Very, very busy and colourful, I know - but, I love all the cute fabrics - I included some fabrics from a few of my favourite people, so some happy memories there. Jennifer Kingwell of Amitie has really got me going and I can't wait for July's block to arrive! Some lovely bright colour in very dreary, wet, cold weather!
I'm off to pick up my new computer now - wish me luck!
PS - for all the NRL fans, whoohoo Queensland - you've done it again!

You are so cold and it has been 100F here for the last week. It felt really good today as it only got up to 97F. lol
ReplyDeleteYou and Rita are inspiring me to try some of those whirlygigs. They care so cute. I like your quilt too without the borders. Now to decide which to do?
