Sewing in circles

It’s drizzly and muggy out today, which I’ve decided is the perfect weather for working on abandoned quilts with a mug of tea. I started this one aaages ago and have been neglecting it in favor of making a million Darling Ranges.

What’s funny is I was inspired to work on it again because I kept thinking how adorable it would look on my bed with all of my finished dresses hanging nearby.

Anyway, I realized that I had accumulated a ton more scrap fabrics (from all of those dresses!) and decided to cut some more pieces to incorporate more variety in fabrics. I love how it’s turning out!

In retrospect, I have absolutely no idea why I chose this as my third ever quilt. It’s quite a beast of a project. And I’m still pretty terrible at sewing in circles.

But look! It has hearts!
