Disappearing Pinwheel
The second project our Rotary Cutters quilt group did for the year, was the Disappearing Pinwheel. Another very innovative way of starting off with just two squares of light and dark, constructing half square triangles and stitching them together to form a 12" pinwheel.
or this one, the look I went for.
It is created with 4 blocks laid out in the order as shown below which really had me utterly confused as I swopped the dark and light fabrics. And I also wanted the print of the darker fabric to all go in the same direction in each quarter, which my son (not so jokingly) refers to as his mother's OCD.

Shopping at Fabric8
This month's shopping at Fabric8 included among others more wool for Cheyenne's blanket as well as some cute charms and a pinking scissor. Do scroll down for a picture of the blanket.
The package was as per usual wrapped in gift paper
It is like unwrapping a present within a present and is just so welcoming.
Then another packet inside with all my little purchases.
