Pinwheeling Fun and Family

Round 5 at the Old Red Barn Co. Quilt-Along was load of Pinwheel fun.
Used some fabric my mom gave me for Christmas...and some Kona solid...oatmeal I think.

The pieces in the back were a garden themed panel I received in a giveaway from the lovely Marguerite in Ramsgate, England...how cool is that?:)
Thanks Pal! xoxo
Our lilacs are blooming and the smell is amazing. We aren't the only ones that like them! Tiger Swallowtail.

  6. That was tecnically MY Bruce shirt before it was his. One of the stipulations that he gets to keep it is that he must wear it every day. He has kept true to his word thus far.

    Pretty quilt.
