About this page
Quilters call these blocks pinwheel and square-in-a-square. They alternate across the grid like a checkerboard.
Every pinwheel is made of eight triangles in two colors. Keep each color on the same side of every triangle and the wheels appear to spin.
Drawn by a computer program for exact symmetry.
Coloring ideas
- Limit yourself to four or five colors, as a quilter would with fabric.
- Print it and use it to plan a real quilt.
