Vintage spin {progress}

I finally finished making the 16 blocks I need for my Vintage Spin quilt. It's a fun block to make but I am happy to finish at 16. I had a trial layout to make sure there was enough balance between the light and dark blocks. I might need to move some of the blocks around, but I think it will work ok.


Then it was on to the business of making the centres. I am a novice at applique so I started by re-watching Sarah Fielke's craftsy class "Big Techniques from Small Scraps" and then I was off!

Unintentional fussy cutting from the cardboard box I used

  1. Your wedges are all looking great! I really like that last combination, teal feathers with pinky purple swirls! And your spotty circles look great too, good choice... mr D. had the nerve to ask me why I hadn't lined MY spots up first, gr-r-r!
