Of course, I started cutting very careful even circles, but said, the heck with this and proceeded just to fold squares in half, half again, and then one more time and then cut circles from that. If they were too big for the square, I just whacked some off. You stitch one to the square then cut out from the back side roughly (hahaha) 1/4" from your stitches. Save that cut out to use as another circle. Lay another one on the front and repeat. When you're all done with as many circles as you want, you slice each block into quarters and then mix and match. Lots of fun for a chaotic quilter like me!
Krystyna, thank you so much for this link. I love it so much I am literally starting one for myself today! Very awesome.
