Tessallations

Isabel showed a tiny tessellated piece then made a larger one with layer cakes and Colette took up the idea and made one too, also using the twister ruler. First squares are pieced with a border; then  an angled square is placed on the top with seam crossings at the centre and the new squares are marked then cut and turned to form the new pattern. The border becomes incorporporated into the twirling pinwheels.
