Nesting – the Bloom Quilt
I’ve finally made some decent progress on my third ‘Nesting’ Quilt.
So, I put the strips together (as you saw in the WIP Wednesday post) and off the quilt top went to QuiltsbyBarb for a little ‘bare bone’s’ quilting. In less than a week I had my quilted top back to me!
So, I started to cut out my circles for my yo-yo’s.
To begin…I starched the heck out of the fabric and ironed it. I then found random circular objects around my basement in various sizes to use as my circle templates. I traced the outline of the objects with a water soluble fabric marker.

Then using my handy dandy teeny tiny rotary cutter I cut out the different circles.



I REALLY like what striped fabric does when it’s yo-yo’d.
