SewEndipitous® Maker’s Note:
Twirling Columns has such a grounded, handsome feel — warm, graphic, and full of quiet movement. The repeating blocks give the quilt a strong visual rhythm without making the construction feel overwhelming.
We especially love this one for makers who enjoy traditional blocks with a modern arrangement. The nine patch keeps things familiar, while the spool-style block adds the twist that makes the design feel fresh.
