Pinwheels and 4-Patches, My Second!

This is the second "Pinwheels and 4-Patches" quilt  WIP.  It is simple, simple!!!  I LOVE those graphics!  These are my favorite colors (I call them "foresty") and I DO have a lot of them.  Blocks are 6 inch, finished.  These are bits and pieces in boxes under the bed, under the sewing table, in drawers, stacked in a corner, in plastic carryalls, etc.  I actually started this almost 3 years ago at a Retreat.  My colors are not arranged correctly - that's another project.  Inspiration was from http://www.quiltville.com/, and a Better Homes and Gardens book, and from another book, somewhere around here.   They all had good ideas, color suggestions, layout.

In this layout, every other row of pinwheels changes direction, and also every other row of the 4-patches rotates 90 degrees.  One row starts with a dark square of the 4-patch in the upper left corner,  but the next row it's a light square of the 4-patch.  I've seen this one done without the same layout of the 4-patches, and the design is just fine, but not the same.   The light corner of the 4-patch nestles up next to a light pinwheel part of adjoining blocks, and the dark corner of the 4-patch nestles into the dark portion of the adjoining pinwheel.  (It's easier to SEW them correctly than it is to write this correctly!)  8-)

Here is my previous version -- the one on our bed, in daily use.

See? it looks similar!  The above quilt is trimmed in green and browns.  This newer one will be trimmed in purple or blues, possibly, and will be smaller.  No idea about border yet.
The one above? I struggled with leaving those bright blue/turquoise pinwheels in the quilt, but THEY are the ones that give it some emergy.  (another one of those lessons!)
