I like the background much better with the white background!

I love watching you make your blocks…especially the half circles! You truly do make it look easy! Thank you so much!

[@lynnmanchester9062]

Thank you so much! I have your classic curves ruler and bins of eclectic prints. I will add some solids and have so much fun with this!

I LOVE this quilt. I have batiks that I want to use up and donate as baby quilts and I think this is a great idea for that. I think black-and-white prints for backgrounds with the batiks would make a CUTE quilt. Thanks, Sharon, I love your ideas and designs. I made the Irish Chain and it is one of the prettiest quilts I’ve ever made! I will post a photo on your blog when I finish the binding.

I can't wait to make this quilt. We do a Shop Hop the end of July and the first of August and this is going to be my Shop Hop quilt. Last year I did your pattern, Bloom. I love you techniques and videos.

When putting the painters tape on the lines ,use different colors, one in blue the other in green painters tape 😄

How do you calculate for different size blocks? I need my half circle block to be 10.5 X 5.5 unfinished …

[@badlandsquilts9741]

I would like to make the half circle units in the smallest size possible utilizing the ruler. What size would I cut the background and half circle fabrics to do so and what size finished block would that yield?

[@margaretdinn5116]

I have a question. Why doing half circles you eliminate the seam allowance at the bottom of the half circle? Don't you need it? I understand why you do it for the side.

[@rvavrosky8309]

I have the same question. What am I missing?
