Regarding Quiltwoman's center...
The more I look at this laying on my cutting table the more I love it. It is truly a beautiful quilt.
I am not sure what to do yet, but I am thinking of bringing the circles out from the center. Any suggestions on techniques? I am not the best at applique and don't want to mix machine with a job done so wonderfully.
Going to be hard to send this one back!

I think using circles again would be great! That was my original idea but there was so much activity in the previous borders that everything I tried with circles was too busy, so I did the basic blue border to provide a frame. I think it's ready for circles now! Do a search for circles or circle applique here on the board and you'll get a variety of threads on the topic.

Oh my Gracious!!! I hit a mini gold mine today!!!
I was telling one of the moms at school who is a fellow quilter about QW's quilt and how I really wanted to bring out the circles but wasn't quite sure how to go about it. Today she brought me a goodie bag!!! She brought me the templates for the exact thing I had in mind and a big selection of batiks too!!!! Apparently she has a big enough stash to share.. lol will have to go visit her soon. Oh my goodness I am so excited about this, I can't wait to play with this new techinque and hopefully make a beautiful addition to QW amazing quilt!!! Woot Woot let's hear it for fellow quilters everywhere!!!!
