P inwheel

Designed by Julie Hendricksen Crossing

Finished quilt size: 72" x 88"

Finished block Size: 8" x 8"

The inspiration for this quilt came from an antique quilt sewn

with plaids. I love shirtings so I started with those instead.

Combined with dark prints, they became the pinwheel blocks.

I first considered red for the squares, but I really love the

buttery gold I chose. This is another "vintage" quilt to add to

your collection!
