Circular Thnking!

 Alrightly, then!!  Here is my circle quilt, in all it's circular glory.  I still have three more circles to applique, and then I am calling it quits.  I loved making this quilt!!  Of course I still have to sew the blocks together, and then a border too.
I just have to have a heart circle block in there!

And some slightly off center circles, for those kind of days...

 Here are all the blocks stacked up after trimming.  It took about 3 and a half hours to trim them...wow!!!  Holey aching feet, Batman!

Some blocks are pieced circles...and many have favorite fabric scraps from my deep stash.  LOL!  Just musing here...MOST of my stash is just scraps!!  Which is perfect for this kind of project...I love my scraps!!




Hope each of you has a magnificent day!!

Love your circles. I have a stack of circles as well from my deep stash! Gotta love that stash!
I'm not done with my circle sewing though. I plan to make more.

Well done!

Your deep stash must have loved coming full circle and back out into the open and being part of this wonderful quilt.

I am always amazed at how much quilting you turn out, with a lot of hand work in there, too. And you work, and cook, and take care of your house and pet. Wonder Woman has nothing on you.

The circles are wonderful. I don't think I'll ever get tired of looking at those!

You continue to crank em out! I was doing some stitching on mine this evening, tryin to wrap em up! But all of mine are just plain ole squares.

Your circles look so "happy"! Did you use a stabilizer or anything behind the circles? Love the look of this quilt!

QUILTING IS BLISSFUL, DI said...

How pretty is that quilt going to be when finished--
and like you it said--memories in the fabrics are always good--
enjoy the moments, di

I love this idea, that each circle has a memory for you. Well done.

This looks magnificent! Down the home stretch. I can't wait to see the finished product. I've got quite a few circles to make before I will be at the point you are.

Puffins and purples!!

I was tempted by Puffins...a squirrelly breed!!  LOL!  This fabric was shared with me, and I have been loved these bright, candy corn colors...
