You could go one step further than me and cut each block up into quarters and stitch together again. I will talk you through the process using freezer paper if you like the design. I got the idea from a quilting magazine which had a simpler block layout than what I did. I found this went together really easily and there is no wastage of fabric, as you trim out the backing and can re-use on another block as I did :-D
I absolutely loved the circle quilt. If you have some time (ha-ha), I would love to see a tute with pics. Thank you for sharing!

I, too, doodle and create patterns. When I have it down, I do transfer it to my graph paper book... just in case the children are interested someday.
I doodle and stick in a book too...mind you, I am not sure anyone will be able to make head nor tail of them tee hee!

As soon as I have time I WILL do a tute, as this really is a very easy way to get perfect circles without much effort :-D :lol:
