Pastel Circle Pillow

Hello all.  I hope your Easter weekend was bright and cheerful and full of family and chocolate! Ours sure was!

Now -- how would feel about a pretty pastel, spring-like share for today??

Yes?  Good. I'm glad.

How does this tickle your fancy??

Doesn't this mix of prints just SCREAM "Spring?"

Before I began cutting I decided how I was going  to use each colour.  Good old pencil  and paper planning always works best for me!

Then, using 

THIS TUTORIAL

(Thanks, Lori!)

I created my nine circles.  

I was pleased with the shape of my circles.  Some were quite wonky so when it came time to pin them on the white background fabric, I had to manipulate them into the roundest shape possible! 

Overall, I am pretty chuffed with how it turned out.   I really wanted to add some shots of pink into my mostly green and white living room.  

See how nicely it snuggles up beside my Dresden pillow? 

I am thinking I may make an entire quilt using this technique.  I like how using the larger circles means that the print on each fabric can been seem clearly  and enjoyed fully.  

Maybe I'll make a twin bed-sized quilt for the daughter's bed.  Her room is getting a makeover in the next month and her current quilt has seen better days.  

Hmmm....... Another project to ponder!
