Pinwheel Sampler in Blush

The brown in this quilt reminds me of chocolate…

Not Vanilla not Yellow ~ sorry Riley, he would just love to lay on this quilt.  No way Mister!

I made 20 blocks and used  3’’ borders with small pinwheels between the blocks.  My quilt measures 62’’x72’’ after washing and drying.

I pieced the back and quilted my sampler with a crosshatch design, I’m very happy with the way it finished.

Thanks Rachel of P.S. i Quilt (love her blog name) for taking the time to instruct us on how to stitch up this wonderful sampler.  I told myself I wasn’t signing up for any quilt-a-longs this year, I couldn’t resist!

Lots of gardening going on here too, in between stitching time.
