Iron outer border towards outer edge of quilt.

What a great site! Thanks for this wonderful pattern and tutorial. I've been looking for a great baby quilt for new little girl in our family and I've finally found it!
Beautiful quilt! Do you have a recipe to increase the yield to a bit larger quilt like a throw or twin sized???
This is so cute. I just stumbled upon you blog and am haveing a very good visit. I will be trying some of your things for sure. I love your little button top pins. Where did you get them?

Thanks for the tutorial! The quilt was so fun to make!
I was simply delighted to find your pattern through Google. My sister and I both have new grandbabies due in the same week and I needed a cute pinwheel to make for them.
Thank you for sharing the pattern, your blog is awesome.
This is absolutely A. Dor. Able!!! Have been wanting to do prairie points, and this is the perfect one! Cannot wait to make it! Thanks for the clear and concise instructions!
This is so pretty! I can't resist, I am making a second one. Thank-you for this lovely design and tutorial!
I made this with batik fabrics... so CUTE! Thanks for the great pattern!
Wonderful Baby quilt - thanks
Just one query - how do you sew over the thick seams of your pinwheel blocks on your Elna. My Janome 6600 simply will not sew over these thick seams - tried all feet and changed pressure!! Now only use machine for FM!!
