The prompt for this was Anja Quilts: Triangles. I love pinwheels, so this was the perfect time to make them! The half square blocks are 2 ¹/₂” square (unfinished). I cut them in groups of 4, using an Accuquilt Qube 8 die. Then I sewed them together to make the pinwheels. Each pinwheel finishes at 4″ square.

I also added a 1 ³/₄” coping border.

Edit: For my SAHRR 2025, I am using the Island Batik fabric collection “Poetic Bouquet,” designed by Kathy Engle for Heidi Pridemore of The Whimsical Workshop and Island Batik’s solid white.

Please note: If you plan to do EVERYTHING that I do on this Round Robin, you will end up with a queen size quilt. If you want a smaller quilt and want to do the same as me, then just add to 2 sides with each of the remaining rounds.

Pictures of other participants

If you wish to send me pictures to include on the blog, please do so by Saturday at Midnight.

Here are the pictures of Round #1

My first name, Jacomina, is a feminine form of Jacob, used in the provincie of Zeeland in the Netherlands. So, an easy choice for this blockI have been able to trace my first name back to my sixth great Grandmother Born in 1732 about a mile from where I was born.

Fauntie’s block from last year’s SAHRR!!! She plans to finish it this year!

Judy has sent me a pic of her blocks. The blocks are 16″ square, so she’s decided to just go with 2 blocks.

Robin has added 2 blocks to her centre block

Kristen has added blue & purple triangles all around her centre block.  “S” is for Susan and Sawtooth border. Susan told Kristen that she needs more purple in her life, so this quilt is for her!

Carolyn is waiting to see where she wants to place this block. The Cardinal is an excellent “C” block!

Angie has a very pretty block in blues

Gail H. said, “Here’s my round 1 24” x 24” using Geometry blocks.”

Gene is using a block from when he was teaching himself Seminole patchwork.

Kristi said, “I started with Kings Crown and tweaked it a bit to add more HST’s and the little square in square. “
