Circle of Friends Quilt

I'm back to share some more projects I've completed in the last few months! Shocking, I know!

Last year, my quilt guild had a friendship block swap. Each member selected a color and made a "Circle of Friends" block in their color for each member of the guild. We then swapped blocks with everyone. With our blocks, we were challenged to design our own quilt. I took my inspiration from the circle of squares in the block and replicated it for the layout of the blocks in my quilt.

I used my own quilt block as the label on the back of my quilt.

I then emphasized the circle theme by quilting a circle design on the quilt.

This was a fun project and an easy one to complete - not like the last two quilt guild challenges that I still haven't finished because I made them too complicated and time consuming. One of these days, I'll circle around to those and finish them!

Happy Quilting!

P.S. I planted zinnia seeds in my flower garden for the first time this year. This is my first bloom. I can't wait for more blooms to open!
