I love your quilt. Another thing the lady taught us, was, place the circles off center & then put another one overlapping the first one & also fussy cutting some print. For instance kids print is very cute, or other prints like flowers. You can just let your imagination run wild. You can also put a wonky border on each block.
Great ideas, thanks for sharing!
