Pinwheels and Spring...

While the snow melted I worked on half square triangles
It felt like a million of them...... I ended with enough to make 230 pinwheels..do the math...


The pieces with white fabric made me nervous, but I kept thinking I could always tea dye them.....

Well spring got here... My bulbs I planted are coming up.  There's plenty of yard to rake-- I don't care... any excuse to be outside.

I'm at a stopping point until I get border fabrics but they're still fun to play with.....

Those are so cute displayed there in your flower bed. :) Can't wait to see where these little beauties end up.

What a fun project. I'm impressed that you are starting a project in the spring. I would not be able to do that.

I think the white fabric will add a little pop to the quilt. Looks like a great project!
