Design Wall Monday

365 Quilty Circles.......
My first quilt top for this year's project is complete with a HST and circle with 4 or 5 words as my Journal Entry and the date.  Each HST finishes at (4 inches).  There are 12 squares across and 15 down making the top 48" x 60".  It begins at January 1st, 2016 and ends at June 28th, 2016.

Design Wall Monday  07-11-2016

My second quilt top for this year's project will begin at June 29th, and hopefully end on Dec. 31st, 2016.
I have had a difficult time keeping the project up-to-date.  It took most of last week to get caught up on my
June blocks and now it's the 11th and I haven't begun July's blocks.  Yikes!!

I have adored this project.  I have enjoyed choosing the fabrics for each square, trying to have the fabrics relate to what happened that day.  Some days, I hand embroider the circles and some days, I machine embroider the circles, trying different colors of thread that match the fabric.  It makes a great conversation
starter.  My fellow guild members were intrigued when I showed it at guild last Saturday.
