Back to Quilting

Finally managed to pin-baste the pinwheel flower quilt that I began here.
I began by doing some stitch-in-the-ditch quilting with monofilament (invisible) thread, stitching the plain borders, and stitching around the outline of each pinwheel.
I continued to stitch the yellow small flower pinwheels with some variegated trilobal polyester thread (nice and shiny), stitching swirls in each "petal".

Then I stitched the green pinwheels in the border, using a green variegated thread.  I stitched large leaves in each part of the small green pinwheels.....

 Then continued with smaller leaves in the large pinwheel blocks in the border.......
