Not far from my house is a field of windmills. I've heard them called eyesores, but to me they're lovely. When the wind is blowing, as it almost always is, they cut slow and graceful swaths in the air. I don't know how much power they produce, but I do like to look at them. They're as much a part of the landscape for me as the green fields, the stone walls or the placid sheep. Today's block is actually four 6" pinwheel blocks sewn together. I don't think I've ever met a pinwheel block I didn't like. I love the way little triangles join together to produce the illusion of motion. I love even more that there are always secret pinwheels hiding between the ones you see. How many pinwheels do YOU see?
