Whirly bird Quilt


I finally got this quilt finished. It started out as orphan hst that were sewn into pinwheels. Then matched into blocks of 4 with not all of them matching perfectly by color and direction. It truly is a scrappy thing. And it is totally made from stash.

pretty! What a great plaid & a great way to use is - totally unexpected. (It looks great with the mint.)

Love the plaid squares as well as the quirky blocks with the pinwheels turning in the other direction :-)

It's a marvelous scrappy quilt! I love it that parts of a single block don't quite match - just what our foremothers would have done.
