Confessions of a quilter....
I am sharing a common mistake that is made when making a pinwheel block - of which I have made many but somehow continue to do! Yikes! (in the pic below I had corrected my error)
I am working on a baby quilt and made a bunch of the blocks and was ready to piece together the rows when I noticed that a few of the blocks had "issues" when butted up against each other.
See pic below...
That just should not be!
The pic below shows the 2 different configurations that are typically done when piecing a pinwheel block. So the important thing to do is to make sure you're doing them all the same as you piece them...(which I thought I was doing, by the way - but there were 3 blocks I pieced wrong and had to rip out & resew.
It's not the end of the world, but who wants to have to rip & resew? Not me! I want to get the thing pieced and finished so I can move on to another project!
There always one waiting in the wings... :)
So have a happy Monday and consider yourself warned...
