What was your inspiration?

When I saw our September BOM assignment, I did an internet search on Drunkard's Path blocks. I decided to try this version, with circles... It seemed interesting and modern. I am glad that Amy chose the drunkards path for us to try this month. At first I was a bit intimidated, but I think it is good to get out of one's comfort zone, sometimes.

Thanks, Jean - It took me a long time to figure out what to do for this month's blocks. Once I stumbled onto the circle idea, I finally was able to get excited about this assignment! I went from "Dread" to "Joy" Lol!!

Thanks, LadyBev! It was fun arranging them! I just kept thinking "dark" and "light" fabric... After I had them laid out I took a digital photo,,, and boy was I glad to have that to refer back to as I sewed them! Lol :)
