July ................

My July partner is Kelly who asked for Ohio Star, in pinks. I made a block in 2 fabrics, and had to make another, this time using 4 fabrics. It is wonderful, the different look achieved by a different arrangement of fabrics or colours. These are the blocks I made and sent -
 
 
 
 
and this is the gorgeous pinwheel Kelly sent to me.
 
 
I think I'll have to change my selection next month - my collection of pinwheel blocks will make a beautiful quilt with a purple theme. There is some purple in each block, sometimes a little, often lots - and they are all stunning.
 
Thank you so much Kelly for this month's block. Thank you everyone who has stitched a pinwheel block.
Hugs, Jan
