Carpenter’s Wheel

 I was browsing on the internet recently and had a look at the Missouri Star site.  Jenny Doan is a legend, and she had a great quilt which was made completely from one Carpenter’s Star block, made from a layer cake of 10” squares.  It looks fabulous, and as I was admiring it, I thought ‘that would look great as a Linus quilt using smaller squares!’  So here is my version. 

 It used up a lot of scraps and you only need a 6” square of colours to make it!  The 6” squares are made into HSTs with white squares and then trimmed to 5.5”.  The plain white squares are cut at 5.5” and I’m sure you can work it out!  I cut some kits out ready for our Linus get together, and they were snapped up.  Thanks, Jenny!
