Home Circle Quilt Finished

 I love inspiration from vintage blocks. Home Circle is a perfect pattern for many fabrics. I like good contrast and  that's what is happening in this orange quilt. Yes! I said orange! I had this quilted last week and just put the binding on yesterday. Blocks are 15" x 15". This is going to our local guild's charity outreach (probably an adult who doesn't mind orange).

Home Circle: 45" x 52"

Or maybe I should view it this way:

Home Circle turned 1/4

Here is another version I've made (and have given away). This uses a gorgeous "marble" group by Michael Miller.

Home Circle with 7 blocks: 60" x 60"

Here it is lying flat so you can see all the blocks and sashings. Notice the top and bottom vertical strips. This makes for a "square" quilt because those strips are 1/2 the width of the blocks (2 half strips per row make for another "block.")

Home Circle with borders

And one made digitally using some daisy themed prints. This was the back of a magazine cover several years ago (my pattern for Benartex).

Here's a look at the blocks scattered on my deck in the sunshine:

Five 15" Home Circle blocks

The pattern features these 3 different quilts (as shown here). It's a fun way to arrange your blocks in a non-traditional manner sure to impress your quilting buddies.
