Directions:

Method 1

Take two different fabrics; a 6″ square and a 5″ square. Make a circle using a compass or a pre-made template. After this, trace the circle on a thermal adhesive using a pencil, then cut the shape out. Press it afterward, then peel the adhesive and put the circle in the center of your block. Press it, take it to the sewing machine, and sew the edges.

Method 2

Get two more fabrics (a 6″ square and a 5″ square), trace a circle on the 5″ square, then sew them on the 6″ square, right sides together. Cut off the excess fabric afterwards. Clip the edges around in small intervals, snip off the center as well, then turn it inside out. Press again afterwards. Take a big square and sew the circle in the center.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
