Christmas in July at Quilt Fabric Delight's continues this week and my second project was unveiled you can catch all of weeks 1 action here. I have to admit I drafted this pattern not really thinking about how the blocks would come together and ordered the fabric then realised it might be hard to piece and get it right. However I did a couple of test blocks and they came together amazingly easily. I think I am going to do a jelly roll friendly version down the track and I'd love to do a scrappier version of the big blocks as well and of course make it just so much bigger.
Well that's it for this week, who knows I may have further news next week on that other thing I'm going to be working on.

Peppermint Twirl is a great looking quilt – versatile too, in terms of making it look completely different depending on the fabrics you use.
Glad to hear you’re having fun teaching – and I bet your class is enjoying learning from you too! Your post got me thinking about whether there is a natural progression for beginner quilters – I know I started with simple squares and probably did pinwheels fairly early on – cant recall what happened next!
Sounds like your class is going really well. I'll be looking for your new project.
Peppermint Twirl looks great. It would make a fun scrappy quilt. Hopefully you'll get a chance to play with that idea too.
