I love our inspectors too (2 of the 8 in the photo). I did not have any problem with the extra layer. I did have a problem with getting my circles perfectly centered and/or perfectly cut into quarters. I ended up trimming each one a little bit to get them sized alike.

When you pieced the blocks, having the 2 layers of fabric : circle + background, Did you use the same 1/4" seam allowance? I didn't know if you found extra bulk from the 2 layers and used a wider seam allowance. Thank you!
