Today’s post is part of a series called Quilt Block Building Basics.

Consider this a helpful visual and companion for any of my quilt patterns.  Sometimes you just need to see it to understand it.

We are chatting today about pinwheel blocks. I have a new quilt pattern coming, LaLa Fancy, and she has pinwheels in her. I thought I’d pop up a little tutorial to help you along the way. I’m also including a PDF pattern today, so that you’ll know how to make pinwheels in a variety of sizes. Scroll to the PDF link to download it and save it to your device.

So get comfy, find something fragrant to sip and let’s learn all about it.
