We’re making progress on our Sue Ross Whirligig quilts at Paddington Patchworkers – and loving the process!
Desley’s are spectacular – A Day in the Country meets Kaffe Fassett. Wow!
Here are her first two finished blocks, set against dark pink backgrounds. See how piecing the outside ‘cogs’ in the outer wheel in white makes the whirligig appear spiky.
Here are a couple of Aviva’s blocks where she was auditioning different cog wheels before deciding which ones to use with her whirligigs. 
It pays to play around with different combinations before stitching the rings together - often the results will surprise you.
I am sure enjoying seeing all these whirligigs. They are so bright and fun! You're right about how the position of prints changes the appearance. But every one of them is wonderful. I love them all!
