I liked this Mountain Top pattern (from Laundry Basket Quilts) as soon as I saw it and when the HST exchange came up I knew it would the perfect opportunity to get a bunch of these done. I received 504 and had to make another 200 something, but having the bulk of them done gave me the impetus I needed to sew the rest. The X across the blocks is 2" wide, and they will have that same 2" sashing around the outside of the blocks.

I vote for pinwheels in the corners as well. It will be a lovely quilt.

hey Margo thats looks great, I have still not decided on mine yet.......

Those pinwheels look great! If I was doing pinwheels I wouldn't square mine up first either. At least not until I had them sewn into groups of 4. I don't expect to get any sewing done on mine for awhile.

I was one of the lucky ones whose HSTs were returned quickly. I exchanged 615 HSTs and quickly got them pressed open and the papers removed.
Tonight I finished sewing the 76 pinwheel blocks and 4 diamonds that I need for my planned border but after seeing the photo, I think I'll change the corner diamonds into pinwheels.

I'll take a break tomorrow and work on the 9-patches next week.



What are you creating????
