Adventures of a Novelty Fabric and Selvage Obsessed Quilter

Glad you stopped by!

I am a busy wife and the mom of 19 year old twins, a boy and a girl who are Sophomores at Syracuse University.

I have been quilting since the spring of 2008. I love novelty fabrics, colorful and unique.

Selvage quilting is addictive! Who knew the "junk" we cut off and threw out would be what I now save! I started a new tradition when I travel--visiting quilt stores! I particularly enjoy going to stores that have been named in the Quilt Sampler Featured Shop Lists-

    Why not use fusible bias tape to trim the circles' edge! It does come in more then black, if you want to add more color.

    What I do is draw a circle on freezer paper the size I need, cut it out and press it to my piece that needs trimming; then I cut around it. I have compass points so I can draw large circles...I think that's what you call them; the things you slide onto a 1" wide ruler, and then set at the radius you need.

    I am assuming you meant, cut to size, when you said, "trim".

    how about the method for paper piecing wonky circles on the quilty cat, except your circle wouldn't be wonky.http://quiltycat-quiltycat.blogspot.com/2010/01/wonky-wheel-tutorial.html
