I am completely overwhelmed by the number of comments I have received for the 'giveaway'. I must rethink how I will make a selection. My idea now is to select all the ideas then as I don't have an automatic selector on my computer I will put all names in a hat and get my granddaughter to draw one out. There seems to be a bit of a trend in what quilters are making at the moment, eg. disappearing nine patch and twisters seem to be the most popular. I have made a disappearing nine patch so know what that is but I am not familiar with the twister. I have a little square ruler that I purchased at a show which I haven't used yet and I'm wondering if this is what you use. What I have is called a 'Pinwheel Magic' but it seems by reading the instructions you join diffeent squares together then cut the centre out of where they are joined then then turn it around, is this what you call a 'twister'./

you can get a random number selector free online. The actual ruler is caller the twister ruler, but it sounds like yours will do the same thing too. It gets place over the intersection of 4 blocks a little wonky, then cut it out, and when you sew them back together it gives you a little "twister" pinwheel. Make sure to sew on a border and cut the border with the outer squares too. It is very time consuming, but looks wonderful when finished.
