I keep telling myself "I do not need any more patterns and fabric, I got enough for several lifetimes." But then Jenny comes out with a new tutorial and all my resolutions fly right out the window. But I just have to have this one.

These pinwheels look like they are are actually in motion - turning with them wind! Really very appealing!

[@lindagillespie6556]

Jenny,I love you Love you, love you….you’ve been my mentor for as long as you’ve been making these videos, I had always been a hand quilter and stopped due to arthritis in my neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist and esp thumbs,(Dequerveins synovitis) and at first when I saw that people started machine quilting, I was like well that’s cheating not quilting. But after I saw a few of your shows I realized all I was doing was denying myself of one of my favorite things ever and so I started quilting again on a machine but had you not helped with your videos I would have never learned how, as I wasn’t a sewist but am that now too. Thank you so much for your inspiration. I am once again, quilting happily, better and enjoying it more than ever. Thank you Jenny I know our creator blesses you daily with love, laughter and stitching fun. And so many people love you I’ll bet your heart just bursts sometimes in tears of joy, when I watch you and see how happy and thankful you are I cry happy tears for you. Your most beloved fan…..EVER💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️💕Linda Gillespie

[@ruthhilsdorf3210]

So glad you found a way to continue doing what you love!

[@urbanhomesteadingchannel1813]

This is perfect! The pinwheel block is my signature for all my grandchildren's quilts. I even made a single pinwheel block and quilted for my son when his girlfriend miscarried. I love this design ❤️

[@chamalismith]

Sending you all so much love. This is a beautiful idea xx

[@nickles4652]

I really like how quick this would go. Only squaring once is perfect! 👍

This is a neat pattern. It will go on my To Do list. It’s so comforting watching Jenny’s videos. Especially with the world as it is, on top of all the issues each of us has. I need a break from the world. Thanks, Jenny and family.-Karen Morison

[@marshawallace7522]

I love the little tips interspersed in your tutorials like placement of pieces to assure that the machine goes easily across the seams.

[@patrickhawkins5566]

Hello Marsha,how are you hope you’re doing well

[@ginat12345]

Recently bought my first machine at the age of 52. Have watched a ton of videos on quilting. I love your videos. Couldn't believe you made it through the easy 8 without licking your fingers LOL

[@Happybidr]

I’m excited for you having gotten your first sewing machine. Join some sewing Facebook groups, based on what you’re interested in sewing (I.e. quilts, garments, home decor sewing, etc.). They are inspirational and helpful.

[@mlbs4803]

Love it! This would look great with 1930's fabrics.

[@sweetibbies]

The 4 square pun is wonderful!!

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Hi. I hope you are having a cheerful day. I had another busy day in my sewing room and I feel like I'm only clipping away at a mountain of fabric scraps! LOL, I hope you have a fabulous week ahead! Thank you for posting this video and your time!

[@eastskye137]

This would also be beautiful with 1.5" sashing between the blocksin background fabric to define them a bit more. Such a neat block! Thank you for the tutorial.

[@fittoseejane]

I agree. I like the way Jenny made it, and a sashing in between would give a more vintage look, which I love.

[@denaharwell8239]

I’m making this quilt with purple & green. I had decided to put a thin dashing between each block also. I love these tutorials.

[@LifeWithDeborahCarney]

I am going to make this quilt as you go by block and will put thin sashing to join! Looking forward to how this will turn out. I am using some hummingbird themed yardage I have.

[@AnitaSouthall]

@@LifeWithDeborahCarney I thought that each row would be good for QAYG but you have trumped my brain with your idea. Either ways can potentially add stability or size .

[@LifeWithDeborahCarney]

@@AnitaSouthall I like bigger blocks and I do the front and back at the same time. So this seems like it would be perfect for QAYG block sandwiches. I have a little facebook group with my QAYG stuff and I already put this pattern there so I remember to do it soon and what I wanted to use and how I wanted to change it.

[@wayfarinstranger2444]

I just got some red white and blue patriotic fabric, and this will be a great design for my summer picnic quilt! Jenny, you're the best!!! 😊😊😊

[@bobbiewilliams6071]

I am so glad when Friday comes so that I can watch Jenny make a new quilt.

[@susanreusser4374]

I love that ruler to trim 1/2 square triangles!!!

[@sandybruce9092]

I did t even notice that each row pointed in opposite directions. Very clever!!!! Lots of pinwheels % wonder how it would look using larger quarter square triangles - hmmmmm!!!!

[@sandybruce9092]

Yes, it would make a cute baby or child quilt - I’m thinking about my smaller quilt guild who makes quilts (about 40”x50”) for children in crisis. A solid block alternating between the pinwheels could be faster for us and then we would have lots more quarter square triangle blocks for more quilts!

[@tamipalin8171]

what a great idea!! And thank you to you and your guild for your thoughtful gifts to children in crisis!

[@NannaLiz]

You could add these pinwheels around the perimeter of a rectangular fabric panel for a quick quilt, especially for kids. Just add small borders around the panel until you come to the correct measurement of a length of pinwheels. Thanks!

[@AnitaSouthall]

Excellent suggestion 🇦🇺💜👋

[@jeanielipskey1272]

I love pinwheels!

[@janicequeen2064]

I love it. Easy way to make pinwheels. Thanks Ginny

[@nancyweeks9840]

I did this with sashing/cornerstones! Made a huge beautiful quilt. Also used same fabric throughout for the ¼squares - gold!! I love it!

Very pretty & looks easy enough for old arthritic hands to do. TY Jeane Doan & Missouri Star Quilts!

[@HRHDMKYT]

I adore designer Sally Kelly’s fabrics ever since I discovered her a couple of years ago. Because there’s so much going on with her fabrics, in this design I would use a solid with each print besides the solid background, so it wouldn’t look quite so ‘busy’ with all of those prints fighting with each other. It helps the eye appreciate the print designs better, in my opinion. But I *LOVE* this quilt block design, Jenny! It’s such a clever way of making a lot of HST/QST pinwheels quickly. I can’t wait to try it!

[@rethamoore4282]

Jenny, I don't know what I would do without you teaching me all these wonderful blocks !! I want you you know I love everyone of your classes and your quilts are so adorable!! Much love to you my friend !😃❤

[@denisepineda1788]

Boy making sure each rows points are going in the same direction could get confusing, I bet. There are so many possibilities with this block. If you were to add sashing, it would grow the quilt quickly and look completely different. I love the fabrics you chose. Thanks a bunch for the great tips and tricks!

[@traceycoles1693]

Jenny, since I started looking at quilt tutorials, I have found loads of others, but you remain my favourite!

[@vickichandler5872]

[@LinniePA]

Very clever and cute pattern ... I don't particular like fabrics that are as "busy" a pattern as that is, but it works for some people. Would be interesting to see it with softer, more control colors. Nice tutorial!

[@rethamoore4282]

Jenny that's a beautiful quilt but , all those angles are going to drive me nuts at my machine !! This one I will be watching more than five times for sure! 🤗❤❤❤

Hi Jenny, Would you be interested in creating an easy to make “Ocean Waves” quilt? One that uses half square triangles the easy way you make them, instead of cutting and piecing all those triangles? I bought a “Baskets of Blooms” panel and jelly roll from you guys and I want to put the pictures inside of the blank square areas in an ocean waves design. I tried to search to see if you have ever done a tutorial on this, and I couldn’t find one. Thanks so much for considering it! 😊💐🌷🌹🌸🌺
