Making progress.........
Yesterday two friends who rarely ever have the same day off from work came over to sew and chat. One basted two quilts and the other used my design walls and got a quilt top sewn together. I worked on centers for my Vintage Spin blocks. I used the fabric with purple woven in one direction and gold metallic in the other direction. I haven't sewn them in place yet because I'm not positive those are the 9 blocks I want in the wallhanging. I will play a little more with arrangement and then sew centers in. I had to enlarge the circle pattern in the book to have enough overlap onto the wedges.

The purple looks good in the centers... a really deep gold would look good as well. Sewing with friends is always good!!!
Great choice Wanda. I think that fabric is perfect for the centers.
So great to have friends over to sew!!! I love how the blocks are turning out! Just beautiful!
Love the shimmery purple in the center.
the purple centers look really nice.
so often I enlarge the circles for patterns a little bit -I prefer to have a little more room to work with then some patterns give you. I love this purple. Must have been nice to have two friends over at the same day for a sewing get together
those purple centers tie them all together. Hand or machine applique?
Going to have to buy the book for this one:)
Looks like the purple was a good choice as it pulls the blocks all together. It's fun to have friends to sew with.
I hope everyone enlarges the photo, really shows how pretty those centers compliment the spinners.
Sewing with friends... wish I was one of them. (*._,*)

I'm swoonin' over this one Wanda!!
That looks spectacular. I love the centers.
The purple with gold metallic couldn't be more perfect, these are just glorious blocks
Can you tell me if Crooked Cobblestone 1 is available in a pattern? Rosemary Allen, rallen_pa@yahoo.com

Good choice. The purple seems to set off all the other colors1
May I ask how the centers will be attached? Applique?
