Downloadable PDF file of the Exploding Pinwheel quilt pattern.
Inspired by the traditional pinwheel block, this adds a modern spin by "exploding" the pinwheels. This quilt pattern is made up of six repeating blocks of different colors. Each of those blocks have one pattern that is rotated and repeated four times. Each block is 21” square, great size to make an extra block or two for 22” or 24” throw pillows (add sashing as needed). If you enjoy this pattern check out the Hometown Holidays pattern, as it uses this block as well as a couple more simplified versions.

This is a moderately challenging pattern. It does not use a traditional grid structure for the blocks. If you are not comfortable with HSTs and smaller pieces, this may not be the pattern for you.
