I am just new to disappearing quilt blocks and have been loving them so far.

One of the patterns I tried recently is this celtic rose quilt byBrita Nelson the Questioning Quilter.

I am so impressed by how you might create complex patterns with just a pinwheel block!

Watch the video below for full instructions.

You will need 16 half-square triangles.

Step 2:

Form the four half-square triangles into a pinwheel and sew them together.

Once done, press it flat with an iron.

It should measure 8 1/4 by 8 1/4.

This will cut the block in exact thirds.

Now you have half-square triangles, bar blocks, and a pinwheel.

Step 4:

Arrange the pieces just like in the photo below.

Add a bar block on the bottom left and another below it for the wall.

Use another bar block to make the front door, then place the pinwheel beside it.

Lastly, put the remaining bar block on the top right corner with the color on the outer side.

Sew them together and press them flat with an iron.

Make three more blocks for a total of four.

Sew them together and press them flat.
