I have a "how to" sheet on this that I will send via email if you like.

All those places look so interesting. I love that quilt too. It's all pinwheel blocks isn't it?<BR/>I have been making quilt tops all week for 4 different people with that same block. I cut 4" squares, then cut them in half to form triangles. I sew those triangle together in other color combinations to make new squares. Four squares form the pinwheel which I trim to 6 1/2". They go together very quickly. Here is a link to instructions that show how to make a whole bunch at once. http://www.sewaquilt.com/pinwheel.html <BR/>Maybe you know how already!<BR/>Hugs, RhondiRhondihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15684060974095411313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32907900.post-74837559061642491882008-05-18T16:04:00.000+02:002008-05-18T16:04:00.000+02:00What wonderful photos with such beautiful architec...What wonderful photos with such beautiful architecture! Isn't the quilt amazing? I love how the border, almost at the bottom, stands out on its own against the other fabrics. And, the display of silhouettes is so nice; such a pretty change from hanging on the wall.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06645701341189264472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32907900.post-58806988067860786502008-05-18T15:03:00.000+02:002008-05-18T15:03:00.000+02:00I so want to visit too!What a beautiful quilt you ...I so want to visit too!<BR/>What a beautiful quilt you saw.Elizabethdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02405703727112759947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32907900.post-79951391809220919622008-05-18T05:39:00.000+02:002008-05-18T05:39:00.000+02:00What a beautiful little tour!
