Quilt Along Week #3

Here it is... my first pinwheel! I thought pinwheels were my favorite quilt block, but triangles are hard! I tried my best though... it's pretty good for my first try I think, but not perfect. Maybe next time... I think I need more practice!

triangles are hard and these look pretty good!

Hey Em, your triangles are looking great! I tried to finish my two quilt blocks today and my machine stopped working. Argh! So I did a "machine died" post.

Any suggestions for a new machine?

Triangles seem hard now . . . but soon they will feel just like any ordinary piece. Enjoy the process *s*

Hey, Em - I actually got another sewing machine! Yea! Hubby said he'd get one as my Christmas present (he apparently hasn't done any shopping for me yet) if I would pick it out. Well, early present as I'm already using it.

Your triangles (and other triangle blocks I've seen) are so nice that I'm convicted now to go back and re-do my one pointy end that didn't come out right. Thanks for setting a higher bar for me! Otherwise, I'd be a total slacker.

I think you did a fabulous job for your first pinwheel. My first one didn't look half that good. Love the colour too!
Saying Hi for the first time.
