Hmmm.....how often have I wished that I had larger blocks to quilt?
Well, I found out that it is really challenging to quilt large blocks without breaking them down into smaller spaces.
After listening to my client, here is what I came up with:
The curved lines in the brown flow clockwise and the floral design in the green curve counter clockwise. With my favorite school chalk, I chalked in arrows to remind me which way I was going in each block, because I could only get half a pinwheel in my quilting area. Still, I would head off in the wrong direction more than once!
There is a secondary feathery windmill in the blue background.

The 10 inch border is a large open freehand swirly floral to match the blocks.

She chose washable wool batting and this quilt is just as soft and cuddly as can be~!
