Here are 5 pinwheel blocks
Now look closely and please ignore the bits and pieces of snippets on the blocks
Not one stinking block has decent points! I pride myself on being a decent piecer. This is deplorable! And I am not even going to say anything about the block below! I love pinwheel blocks and every time I make them they turn out like this.

| This one WILL be ripped apart! |
I can rip every one of these apart (and I am giving that some serious consideration) but I am also thinking about a raw edge applique of a circle over each point and then spiral quilting from the center of each block.
What do you think?
I have had the same experience - some times I feel I have not learned a thing in all the sewing I had done.
ReplyDeleteLet it be - shows we are not perfect...if you want perfect call upon the Lord!
you aren't the only one!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of the appliqued circle.
Are you pressing all your seams open? I find that the points come out much better with the seams all pressed open.
ReplyDeleteOh my! You make me feel like such an amature! :-p
ReplyDeleteYou are way too crazy about this the only one I saw that was bad was the one you said you were going to rip out. I have to agree with quilting in the rain, I must be an amateur even though I have been quilting almost 30 years.
