Experimental Quilt

This was an experimental quilt. I had seen something similar at a sewing expo. I wasn't exactly sure howe it was made. So I took a plate from my cupboard and traced around in onto fleece material. Lime green and hot pink. I had embroidered some sample of Winnie the pooh's on squares of flannel when I first got my new Brother embroidery machine. (you know to try out some of the cool features) so I took one of those and put it in the middle of the circle and stitched two circles together and folded the edge over to make the frame. And to my amazement it worked. So then I was so excited I wanted to try more so I had to embroider more Winnie the Poohs cut more circles and before I knew it I had a baby quilt made. I absolutely loved it. and it was fun to do. I ended up donating it to the youth mission's trip silent auction at Highline Christian Church.
