Seasoned Pinwheels Quilt

Seasoned Pinwheels Quilt

Hello everyone! My name is Krystal Jakelwicz and I design monthly quilt patterns on my blog called Lets Quilt Something. (www.letsquiltsomething.blogspot.com) Today is my first ever Moda Bake Shop Recipe and I would like to share with you my Seasoned Pinwheels Quilt Pattern which I hope you all will enjoy! A little known fact about me is I LOVE pinwheels. I love finding new ways to incorporate the pinwheel block within my quilt patterns. Plus I love Jelly Rolls! Seasoned Pinwheels is perfect for just about every print. Today I have selected Cowgirl Country because as a fellow Texan I fell in LOVE.  Super cute fabric and I fell in love with the Cowgirl Country text fabric. Also as a added touch I quilted a "Rope" style edge to edge pattern in a wave format since the fabric features a few rope prints within the collection. I hope you enjoyed my Seasoned Pinwheels quilt pattern and tag me on Instagram your progress photos or finished quilts. Or use #letsquiltsomething

This quilt/project finishes at 60" x 72".
