My friend is searching for a quilt pattern to make for her new grandson. The babies room is done with circles. I have searched the message board but have not found anything that just out at me. Does anyone know of a cute pattern with circles?

I made one using many sizes and colors of appliqued circles on a wholee cloth top. I overlapped some and had them hang off the edge. It turned out really cute.

Here's one that I made called "Circle Around"

I got it out of a quilting magazine last winter. I can look it up when I get home this evening if you would like.

If you are doing applique, Iron a coffee filter and use it for your foundation, then sew on top and rip off the back. It makes a perfect circle for almost free.

I did this with scrap red, white, and blue.
Turned out really cool looking.

This could be done in baby prints.

My best friend did one of these, and attached rick-rack stems waving in the breeze, to make balloons out of the circles. It was one of the cutest kids' quilts I have ever seen!
