I’m still making progress on my little scrappy quilt. I’m almost done, but not quite. Still, I was itching for a finish, so I stitched up this mini.
It’s an idea I wanted to try out for my partner in the Modern She Made swap. One of the rules is that you have to include a circle in whatever you make for your partner. I know she likes improv. So why not an improv circle?
I was going to quilt diagonal lines, but after the second diag, I got the idea for lines radiating out from the center. Much more interesting than diagonals, don’t you think?
Now that I know the circle works, I’m going to figure out how to work it into a sewing machine cover for her. But first, I must finish that other little quilt.
For now, I’m linking up to Finish It Up Friday!

Fabulous quilt! and the quilting is just perfect!
Very fun! And I understand the craving for a finish! 😉
I love the improv circle, what a great idea!
This is wonderful ! Love circles and I like the quilting coming out from the circle.
I love the radiating lines. Are you using a ruler? or just eyeballing it?, your lines are very straight!
What a great way to use the Secret Ingredient 🙂 (Iron Chef America reference…*giggle*) I am sure your partner is going to LOVE IT!!!
I love it! I just sewed my first curve last weekend and loved it so now I'm all about circles!

Great little quilt. Love the colours.
Great circle! I love the way you spaced the lines so they are wider on the right. Adds a lot of interest to this mini.
