Twirl

Just finished piecing the Fig Tree “Twirl” pattern.  I used Moda’s Somerset line of fabrics.  I like to have all the pieces cut and lined up ready for assembly line sewing. Some of my quilting buddies just cut out a block at a time and then sew and cut some more.   Whatever works best for you is the way to go. 

 

I put the blocks on my design wall and move around until I am happy with the color placement.

A FriXion pen is great for temporarily numbering the blocks to remember the order for sewing.  What’s a FriXion pen?  It’s a pen that completely erases when ironed.
