Purple Pinwheel Applique

I had fun making it and adding it to the dresses.  I had the pattern tested to make sure others could understand it.  The purple one was made by Jennifer from  https://www.facebook.com/LittleLuvies?ref=ts on facebook.   She is using it on a bag she is making.  I would love to see how you use it.
