My Quilting History

Tula Pink Pinwheels

This quilt started out from left overs from the Tula Jaybird Mini quilt swap.

 I was going to make another mini, but changed my mind and decided to go a little bigger and make a lap quilt.


The fabric I used is Eden from Tula Pink.


I also decided to add triangles between the Pinwheels for a different look.


I spent a couple days deciding on a layout. Moving Pinwheels around trying to disperse the colors evenly. Mostly the yellows since the stick out the most.

Then my kitty Boonky supervised the sewing of rows.

I sewed the rows in pairs, then pairs again to help prevent the quilt top from distorting.


For the backing I used the rest of the Kona gray I bought. It wasn't quite big enough though so I added a few pieces of Eden that were left over. 


Quilting is done. 

 Took it to the beach for a photo shoot 


 It was a bright Sunny day on the pier.
