Circle Play


We had the second day of the Circle Play class at "Welcome to Precious Times". In the first class the girls learnt the technique of curved piecing plus adding the dots and rings. They had gained the confidence to add more them one curve to each of the blocks by the end of the class.
The second class was all about the lay out and design.


  It was time to play on the design wall. All throw every one was working on the same block or technique all the quilt look vastly different. Every one has there own design and colour choice that comes out in the making of there quilts.


Same of the girls had solid boarders to add to there quilt and same had one small boarder to frame the center and a pieced boarder for the out side.


                    More dots, curves and rings were added as the quilt was being designed.


The quilt above and below are the same quilt. One photo was taken on the design wall and anther was hanging at the window. Each photo looks so different, the bottom photo is a little like a stain glass window. ( the seams in the curves all show up.)





I can't wait to see all the "Circle Play" quilts finished. Thank you Lisa and girls for a lovely creativity day. It was lots of fun.


Finished my Kaffe quilt, sorry a little stitching to go on the binding. Thank you Evol for quilting  my quilt.


                                         The back of the quilt, used up my left over blocks.


At the end of the day while looking around Lisa's shop I had the best find !!!!! I have been after this book for years and it has just fallen in to my lap. Thank you Lisa so much.
 Bye for now.
Time to get a cup of tea and check out my new book.

    1. I don't have it as a pattern yet ( working on it) Still teaching it as a class. I'm willing to trave and teach if you would like a class.

  2. Do you sell this pattern online? I don't live in Australia so I cannot take a class.
