Swirl Quilt from Sunshine Yahoo Quilt Group:
Adjusted Directions made by myself from cutting instructions found on that site.
These directions vary from the original and I've added directions that I've plotted out. I do hope that they will be useful. The completed quilt is an excellent donation baby quilt. Finished size is apprx. 40 x 45 which makes it easy to fit to a width of fabric for the back and carefully onto a 45 inch batting piece.
ENJOY !

Sorry about the upside down picture, I couldn't remove the wording, so I just rotated the picture to match the others. *grin*
Go on over to http://helenquilts.blogspot.com/2010/07/swirling.html for how she used focus fabrics! It's a way fun way to use this pattern! Thanks Helen!

What an unusual and brilliant quilt!!! Thanks so much for taking the time to write out a tutorial with all those photos. I think it would work great with I Spy fabric squares too and is the perfect donation size. I'm going to print out the directions and have a go at this one ... as soon as I clear my current projects away. Thanks again :)
Thanks for this tutorial.
That is really cool! I can see this with a log cabin type block too. Thanks for the tutorial.
That is a really fun idea!
