Its an easy way to upgrade the basic pinwheel that we all know.
Like the basic pattern, you gotta make half-square triangles.
It is still easy and beginner-friendly, so you dont need to worry.
Watch the video below for the full tutorial.
Cut diagonally from corner to corner.
Take one set and set aside the other.
Sew on one of the short sides with a 1/4 seam allowance.
See the photo below for reference.
Open and press it flat.
Set aside one of the triangles.
Rotate the triangle so that one of the shorter edges is facing on the right.
Take a 2.5 x 7 background strip and place it on top, lining the bottom edges.
Sew the bottom with a 1/4 seam allowance.
Open and press it flat.
Trim off the white strip diagonally using the diagonal on the triangle as the guide.
You should have a bigger triangle.
Sew them together with a 1/4 seam allowance.
Square up the block to 6.
Keep the 3 ruler mark where the two triangles meet.
Now, you have the block.
You need four in different colors.
Step 4:
Arrange the four blocks together like a four-patch, forming a pinwheel.
Sew together with a 1/4 seam allowance.
