We are at week three of the Whirl & Twirl Quilt Along. If you are just joining me THANK YOU! If you are interested in joining, the only requirement is that you purchase my Whirl & Twirl Quilt pattern. You can find it HERE. and if you use the coupon WANDTQAL you will get 30% off through the end of this QAL (good through April 5, 2022). You can find week one HERE.
I have a timeline of progression for the QAL but there is no rule saying you need to complete it in the same time frame. Take your time and have fun! During this week, begin piecing the second half of you main and bonus quilts.
The size quilt you decide to make will determine how many blocks you will need to construct. I chose to do the throw size quilt, so it made the most sense for me to make 1 main and 1 bonus block per day. It worked great as it only took a short time to do both. I am one of those artists who like to have several projects going on at once, so I don’t get burned out on one project. Making one of each block per day allows me to work on my other projects if I need to.
How is your Whirl & Twirl quilt and bonus quilt coming along? Comment below and share your progress on social media with the hashtag #whirlandtwirlqal so I can see all your amazing work!
Did you see in the pattern that I give the instructions and cutting requirements for the bonus quilt block?
When I made the baby size main quilt pattern during testing, I felt the bonus blocks made a really small almost wall hanging size quilt. However, I really wanted it to be larger but didn’t need any more main quilt block pieces that would give, me the correct size and orientation I would need to make the bonus quilt bigger. Because of that, I felt it would be great to also include how to make additional bonus blocks.
