    Well..... the pattern was supposed to be strip pieced, but with the little buggers being only 1/4 inch finished, I wasn't having much luck, so I converted it into a paper piecing pattern and did each pie wedge separately, then sewed together. The circle is appliqued onto the squre background, then you are supposed to trim the under layer, but I'll leave it for now for extra strength through all the handling. Once it's back, I'll cut it out to reduce the bulk in the center circle.

    Using the PP method made everything MUCH simpler. I've got the pattern for three sizes (this one is the smallest) if anyone is interested. You need a wedge ruler.
