Circles sash (6) $12.00 USD
Circles are always quite neutral.
This design is quite different to the other sash designs in that the design area does overlap where it turns. Have a look at the image.
The other thing to be aware of is that if you compress it - the circles become ovals standing on end.
If you expand it though, the circles become ovals lying down.

These patterns are sold as a set - as it is great to always have the desired multiple right on hand.
Of Note:
I did consider splitting this design in half and making it into a builder BUT it does not actually work very well for two reasons:
- variegated threads look awful running along one side of a circle and then the opposite side of the next circle - all the way along and back. It is much better to have each circle sew out completely before moving onto the next.
- you can spot in an instant if you have not perfectly matched both sides of the circle - they eye is not fooled with this pattern! - therefore I will not even try it, and certainly not make one to sell!

Design Features
- quick and accurate placement of the pattern using the point to point function
- corners are self-turning
- the pattern stitches out very quickly and accurately
- tie offs are reduced to a minimum.
As well as being able to stitch across the quilt in one run, if you are extremely smart, each trip across the quilt will also include some of the vertical sashings - so by the end of the quilt there will only be a couple of gaps to fill. - variegated thread catered for: each circle is completed before moving on to the next one.
