I made this quilt using the technique in the link. I just left them whole instead of cutting them in 4 pieces.

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, 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. |

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: |
