Patti’s Star

Several years ago, I took an Electric Quilt class (EQ4) from Patti Anderson at Quilt University.  For practice, I’ve decided to revisit a project from that class.  The following block was drawn during that class.

Patti's Star Quilt Block

When the block is placed in a quilt, the unexpected appears…a star with a pinwheel shaped center, or one could focus on the circles with larger pinwheels that formed:

Playing with symmetry; the circles have been lost:

Similar to the previous quilt, but now the dark pinwheels are more defined:

Fun!

Update: There is a free pdf available for Patti’s Star under the Freebies tab on my header.
