I love this bag!
All the fabric came from my stash, the blue florals came from Lisa at a swap and the pink Flutterbies was a half metre piece that i picked up somewhere, probably Thread Bear actually.
Anyway, the block is a variation of a Roman Square and kinda pinwheely and i set it on point just because it is something i hadn't done before and wanted to try. The pinwheel block came out to 6" and with the on point setting the blocks are 9" square which i think has made a nicer sized bag - but i guess that depends on what it is being used for!!
Fortunately there are some very handy websites that tell you how big to cut the corner triangles so although i had the formula i didn't really need it :D
Again with this bag i put the bottom block inside the bag and used a plain pink curtain weight fabric for the base.
I have lots more 1½" strips in blue to use up so i am planning my next bag :D
