Whirly gig it is!

 I am excited to join another blog hop.  This time the theme is Give it a Whirl.  Oh what fun to check out lots of patterns and ideas.  I knew I wanted something springy and had collected fabrics last year for such a project and they were still sitting there waiting for me. 

Carol at Just let Me Quilt is sponsoring this hop and I hope you find fun and wonderful ideas.

But what design to choose?   Half square triangles, dresden plates, dear me.  Opportunities were endless. 

But then I ran across this pattern from Anka's Treasures whom I have followed for decades before Heather Mulder Peterson was married or had kids.  She now designs fabrics as well. And her colors are so pretty. 

I modified the size of the pieces making four flowers.  It has been fun!

I selected spring colors to get me in my mood for spring. 

40" by 42"  ( I will probably add a white border.)

Happy whirly spring.  I thought the flowers looked like windmills.  

Heart Blossoms pattern can be found here ( Missouri Star Quilt Company).

I also found it on etsy if you are interested.

Don't forget to check the other bloggers who are whirling!
