To hold the layers of the quilt together, you are supposed to pin it every 4 inches. I think all the pins are supposed to go the same way to make it easier, but I was pinning from different sides trying to reach it, and well, as you can see, they are not all the same. Doesn't matter, we're the only ones who will see that.
What a nice blanket (other picture), but I like this photo better, hence the comment here. The different directions of the pins might not work for sewing-purposes, but I think this way they make the picture more interesting! Well done!
