More QAYG ...and with Circles


By the time I made this quilt in 2007, I was beginning to be an old pro at joining the squares. I made this quilt for my beautiful niece, Alarissa's 16th birthday......as she unwrapped it our eyes met, and she said in wonder "You made this for me?" I was a happy quilter then..... another one of my quilts was going to be loved. There I go...sappy again.

 

As my fascination with circles, started to grow, I was determined to conquer them. I have a few favourite methods for circles, as well.....I'll save that for another day


The squares for the quilt back are just random....I didn't bother planning to much....I like surprises.

    This is awesome! Did you sew the squares together first, then applique the circles on top?

    I'm just learning how to piece circles, too! How did you piece the circles on this quilt?
