Almost Never Ending Pinwheels

I've had a weekend to recover from my trip last week.  My machine is set back up and I spent most of yesterday playing in the sewing room.  While I was in Texas, I finished off another 5 pinwheel blocks.




That brought the total up to 28, just 4 more left to make.  I put these up on the design wall with the others. 




I've been putting the pinwheels up as I've finished them. Looking at this photo, I'll need to do a bit of rearranging to better distribute the light and dark blocks.  Three of the last four pinwheels are in pieces at the sewing machine. I've picked out the fabric for the last block, but haven't cut the triangles from it yet. That should happen today.   I'd like to get these last borders assembled, I've another project with a July deadline that I need to put up on the design wall.  So fingers crossed I can finish the last pieced border on this project by the end of the week.  

Linking up with Monday Design Wall and Patchwork & Quilts linky parties again this week.

  1. Nothing like a deadline coming up to spur us on! Is the pinwheel border the last one or do you have more after it? It's looking great.

  3. Hi Kate,
    Your blue and white quilt is coming along nicely. The pinwheel blocks look great. I love the two birds in the middle block too. Hugs, Judy

  8. It does seem like you’ve been making pinwheels for a long time. I once made 96 friendship stars, and that seemed to go on forever. The trimming can be a challenge.

  10. You have done an EXCELLENT job on your Round Robin quilt. It is absolutely beautiful, so soft and subtle, not blaring, and your points are perfect! Good for you! Hugs
