Description:
While working a temp job, RaNae was bored one day and began doodling. She figured out that if you made an octagon and continued to connect the points a certain way it would create a spiral. Thinking this would make an interesting quilt, she pursued the idea and began making a quilt that night based on the idea of this spiral. That quilt became Holiday Whirl and it ended up being the first quilt that RaNae didn't give away and started her journey of making more spiral quilts.
