How to Make Twisting Pinwheel Heart Wall Hanging
Step 1:
Start by arranging the squares just like in the photo below, then sew them together. Once done, add white strips on all sides.
Step 2:
Get your twister template and line the black lines to the intersection on your quilt top. Carefully cut the square. Make sure not to cut go beyond the ruler. Turn it counterclockwise and place in your design wall before you cut the next square. Do this step for every intersection. You should have a pattern just like in the photo below. Make sure all of your pinwheels are going in the same direction. Sew them together.
Step 3:
Add a 3/4″ dark border. Sew the 2″ squares into two rows then sew them for the outer border.
