You said you appliqued the circle to a square and cut into 4ths. Smart idea! I see your 2 fabric inspectors are enjoying your quilt,too!
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!

Beautiful quilt. That pattern certainly is perfect for scraps-couldn't be prettier. Isn't it fun to make something so special out of a box, drawer or bag full of left-over pieces of fabric. Quite a lovely achievement.

This is very similiar to the one I made for my granddaughter for her wedding. My pattern was called "Bullseye".Was yours a raw edge applique? I like your layout better than mine. You did a fantastic job.

Oh it is gorgeous! Great job. Also I love your big bedroom. For years I had a big bedroom & in 2009 I sold that house & I bought this house. Now my bedroom is only about 9' square. Very very small! lol
