365 Circles so far - its a top!


I joined up the blocks this evening and despite lining up a couple of the verticals in the wrong places, I can live with where blocks are now situated.
It will grace my legs on the settee anyway and most likely have a cat or dog laid on it too - so it will do.
Of course now I have to do the wadding, backing and quilting!
I think I will hand quilt it by simply stitching around the circles on the outside of each one, well maybe.
I'm linking up my 365's with Audrey at

You can find a whole bunch of other great 365's there too!

  1. Nice layout-a suggestion you could hand quilt it with large stitches and with embroidery threads, would go quicker and give it a little country or whimsy
