Here is the Block of the Month for May, you too can make circles. This is a fun block for your scrapbag.

Thank you for the May block of the month. I have a question though? How can we size it down, to go with the 12 & 1/2 inch blocks that we have already made? Thank you for your time.
Quiltingly yours,
Sulabug Cheryl

It's never a problem to ask questions. :D I'm glad you found your answer.

With this block scaling down is quite easy, you can just take your square up rule that you use for cutting your blocks to side, and go around placing lids, plates etc, within the area that you'd like. Or just cut the block size you want and stack circles of different sizes until you find the circle sizes you'd like. Just don't forget to leave space on the sides for the seam allowances.
