Pinwheel parade

This weeks block for the Skill Builder Sampler was pinwheel parade. It was hard! This is my finished block.
Four out of the five pinwheel blocks worked out really well, but you see the little turquoise gingham check one in the bottom left corner, that block was a little shit difficult. It's still not as good as I would like but there is a limit to my patience and so the block is finished ;-)

Here's the glamour shot of the blocks so far :-)
I like that the newest block helps to balance out the full colour blocks nicely.
I'm still waiting patiently for a suitable, dry day to be able to take some pictures outside :-) it is very showery here, with just the odd break in the clouds. It would be quite useful to get some washing dry too :-)

If you'll send me some rain, I'd be happy to send you some sun. Lots of sun. We haven't had rain in weeks!! Your quilt block looks great. I would never be able to get the blocks to line up like you do. And I'm still loving the colors you chose!
