circles

i think i'm getting my quilting drive back, all i want to do is work on this scrappy circles quilt. I laid it all out and asked my 4 year old daughter what she thought of it, and her response was, 'it's not very pretty.' lol--she's my toughest critic.

update: I purchased the scrappy circles pattern here.

(and, i'm almost finished with this quilt, it's been a beast.)

    It was so funny to see this post today! I was just thinking last night of doing this quilt, only I wanted to have one fabric for one circle and the rest of it be a solid white. Great minds think alike!

    All my favorite fabrics! I guess I could see how someone who doesn't know designer fabrics could think this was too scrappy to be 'pretty' - maybe she would have liked just white and pink. But we all love it!
