The pinwheel blocks that I have been making from my collection of 30's fabrics turned into the top for a baby quilt yesterday, and not a moment too soon. My great niece Clara was born Saturday afternoon. I also pieced a back for her quilt, so I will try to get it quilted up quickly. I will probably wait until after I have it finished and delivered before I share the quilt here.
Later in the day I started piecing the orange whacky pinwheel or whirligig blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2016 Sampler. This was my first chance all month to spend any time on RSC projects. I hope to finish the rest of these blocks up today.
STASH TOTALS:
Used this week: 2.75 yards

I am joining Kate at Life in Pieces in tracking the number of days each week that I spend at least 15 minutes quilting. The more days I quilt, the more quilts I can get done and the more fabric used.
