Twisted Pinwheel Bag Pattern

The Twisted Pinwheel Bag pattern by Among Brenda's Quilts has instructions for a twisted pinwheel three dimensional block and a unique redwork style panel.  There is an outer pocket that would be perfect for a machine-embroidered design - the possibilities are endless.   Intermediate and beyond sewers are recommended and finished size is 16 in. x 13 in.

Materials Needed:

• 4 to 8 fat quarters of print fabric.  If you want each pinwheel to have it's own color use 8 but if you want 4 different colored pinwheels use 4.
• 4 fat quarters of various white to ecru fabrics for background of pinwheel blocks.  If making background in 1 color, you will need one fat quarter.
