Whirling Around


I made Whirling Around for the Project Quilting Focus Through the Prism pinwheel challenge.


I started with 3D pinwheel blocks and a scrappy background in lighter blues.  I had one extra pinwheel which for some reason spun the wrong way, so I added it to the middle by setting in a circle.

I intended to do some really simple quilting since it is apple season at Lapacek's Orchard, but I soon decided I was not doing justice to my quilt, so I gave it the tight quilting it needed to make the pinwheels pop.

Created near Poynette, WI.
