This is a simple half square triangle windmill. I did forget to center the design between the dark stripes, but if that is the worst error I make, I'm okay with that.

Lovely fabrics all round, just love the fussy cut pieces the fabric looks like it was made just for your pattern piece. Happy Stitching
ReplyDeleteMost of the fabrics I am using come from a couple of French General fat quarter bundles I bought on a Craftsy flash sale more than year ago. Do you have any idea how much fabric is in one of those fat quarter bundles? There are 40 different pieces that add up to no less than 10 yards and I bought 5 or 6 of them that day. That is a lot of individual pieces to pre wash and pres

ReplyDeleteThanks Marjorie.
DeleteBeautiful fabrics and great fussy cutting, your Morrell is going to be gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYou introduced me to it and I do check out your blocks for inspiration. So thank YOU.
DeleteBeautiful and even more beautiful is the idea of handstitching! Thanks for tipping me off to Crafsty for a bundle of fatquarters, because I need to find a lot for an upcoming project. https://pegsplace.wordpress.com/
ReplyDeleteI was just dreaming and kept putting stuff in my crafsty cart then one day a flash sale was announced on an ad on you tube so I ended up with several fat quarter bundles at 40-50% off and only $15 shipping on the whole order! it was 2 huge boxes. And the prices are listed in Canadian $$ which means no surprises.
DeleteBut no more cheap shipping to Canada.
Nice fabrics! This is going to be stunning!
