What’s in a Pin Wheel?: What you see isn’t always what you get! This is a
fun block for which I was told there were four different designs you could
make out of a pin-wheel, but I fiddled around and got six…can you get more?
You only need two fabrics for this one, and the size is up to you, as is the
number of blocks you want to make. I would suggest to make six pin-wheels
at home, and bring them to class and we can play together! The size of your
original block doesn’t matter, it’s your choice, because there is a “formula”
for cutting it up, and you can use it with any size block

Another Stack ‘n Whack: Here is another “take” on the stack ‘n
whack theme. This one takes less fabric (only six repeats are
needed) and it’s just different enough to make it interesting. The
main thing is to get the right fabric for it. You should pick a “dense”
print with no large “blank” spots.
