Tips

Lay out fabric pieces according to design.
Always work from your design.
Make triangles into squares, squares into pairs, 2 pairs into a 4 square, 4 squares into 4 square pairs or bars, then bars into full block!
You can do it!
Checking for colour arrangement as you go. Trim seam allowances after sewing seam. Finger press to the dark side.
Any problem, ask me.
I love to see your work!
Those colours are fabulous! Who helped you put those together?

Lesson One

This quilt measures about a metre square when finished.
The vibrant colours make it a warm and bright quilt.

12" finished block (
finished means not including seam allowance)
broken down into 16 - 3" (finished) squares
most of these squares are further broken down into triangles

Colour placement makes the picture of a large pinwheel or windmill.
