Default what do you make?

What do you make when you need to make a comfort quilt for a friend who's only interests are blacksmithing and watching TV? How about a blacksmith?

My circle got out of round when I pressed it and I am not sure if I should try to fix it or not. Any suggestions? I haven't stitched it down yet, won't until I decide whether to leave it or mess with it. lol

It looks good to me - if it is a wall hanging then one might notice, but if it is for a quilt and to be used, no one will notice.

I think it looks great the way it is. You will not notice it after it is quilted. Good job...

It looks pretty good to me. I might use my Frixion pen to put a tiny line where I want to move my satin stitching out a bit in the spots that need to round out.

Nice concept - did you draw it yourself? I wish I could draw like that! Great idea.

Not noticeable to the average viewer - don't mention it! It's a wonderful idea.
