Spinning head over pinwheels

[Alana]

Here are some pics of my pinwheel. It was a struggle to get it done but eventually I did. I still have the side sashing and border to do yet then the backing and batting. This is just a third of it.

It will work for you just keep at it.

Alana those are really very pretty. You do wonderful work. I hope my second attempt comes out as nice as yours. I did use fabric from MSQC, the Watercolor Garden by Benartex and the Bella Solids, the Watercolor Garden fabric has quite a bit of stretch in one direction. Then cutting on the bias for the pinwheels on top of it makes it have quite a bit of stretch in two directions. I have trashed those and ordered new fabric. I'm not going to give up and I'm no longer frustrated. LOL Now that I think I know what the problem was. Thanks for all the suggestions and when I start the next one I will starch before cutting just to be on the safe side. I learned a long time ago about using good fabric even if I have to pay a little more for it. For my D9P I used Warm Memories by Kansas Troubles and I love that fabric, it is so soft and a dream to work with. Do any of you have another source for the precuts. I always look at MSQC first but it's always nice to have another choice unless they are all the same everywhere. Have a great day tomorrow.
