This was probably the biggest project I’ve tackled to date (aside from hand quilting a king-sized quilt for my parents…still working on that). It’s also been one of most gratifying projects. Finishing it was almost bittersweet. Almost. It was mostly exciting—but it was so pretty, it was hard to say goodbye!
Back at it again! I’m getting close to being done with this project—which I’m excited about because it means that I’ll finally get to see it all done! It’s been a lot of fun and I’ve definitely learned a lot, but it’s always rewarding to finish a big project.
I have too many big projects hanging around to feel like I can jump into smaller ones that would work for the blog—but that means I have an update on Pinwheel Quilt for you! It’s time for another part of the quilting portion!
The title of this post is confusing. Let me explain. The Quilting step of this quilt is going to take several posts. This week I am focusing on the small pinwheels of the quilt.
After this project, I think I will have my fill of triangle practice! I’ve made big and small triangles, and it’s really exciting when it comes time to just do squares again.
This summer my brother and I went to Michigan to visit some extended family and go to a friend’s wedding. We had a great time. Towards the end of our stay, my aunt asked if I would make a quilt for her to go in the room I stayed in while I was there. She gave me a vintage handkerchief to use as inspiration. We looked at Pinterest for some ideas of what she liked.
