I'm Caught in a Swirl!

I taped the Circle Lord Swirls template boards to my frame a few weeks ago, and I just keep using it to quilt whatever comes along. Here are two more "Swirled" quilts.

This is a beautifully pieced "One Block Wonder" which belongs to my friend, Cora.



And this is one of my unfinished quilt top projects. I bought these hand dyed flannel squares on eBay years ago. I used some pretty turquoise flannel by Moda on the back and for the borders.  Legacy 80/20 batting.  It's bright! ---but, so cozy soft! I love how it "swirled".  Like soft velvet!

But it is a GREAT template and gives such wonderful texture. Doesn't hurt to use it often :)

Angie, I love seeing how the swirl pattern turns out on so many different tops. Thanks for the inspiration!
