This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Craftsy Block of the Month 2012 »

Instructions

I added these little pinwheels to strips of the yellow material.
Then I place them between some white eyelet strips and plain yellow strips.
I quilted it on the machine and edged it with bias binding. Mitering the corners.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Toy

For: Children


Materials

I used the little 1 1/2" triangle squares created when sewing flying geese. 4 of these sewed together make little pinwheels. I used 4 little pinwheels. The little trick Amy did on the video when making flying geese for the #16 Double Star August BOM. Quilt batting and some of the dark yellow for the back. For the strips: White cotton eyelet material. Yellow cotton material.

What was your inspiration?

Flying geese from the # 16 Double Star BOM were the inspiration.

What are you most proud of?

A mini doll quilt 12 1/2" square quilt is done and ready for christmas.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The little 1 1/2" triangle squares created when sewing flying geese are worth saveing and doing.

What bright surprised eyes when the little girl that I gave this birthday little doll blanket to, opened the present, held it up and left us in suspense. She then said, "Wonderful now I have a horse blanket for my horse" and proceeded in the other room and got her stick horse and pinned it to it and rode around the room. Just thought everyone would like a little story of what happened to this little blanket:)

In response to HeatherIsaacson regarding the heart by clicking on the heart you were indicating you liked a crafters project. There was no LIKE button, After the 10th person clicked on the heart an email was sent by craftsy telling you that 10 people liked your project. No LIKE button and no advertising. In my post I was referring to the Heart button

I saved my tiny HSTs from the flying geese, but hadn't figured out what to do with them yet. This is a cute idea.
