Sunset Slope Quilters

I designed “Circle of Friends” as a way of teaching Cheryl Phillips’ surprisingly simple technique for insetting circles using her Cut-a-Round tool. You’ll master insetting circles into blocks and circles into circles using just eight pins per circle no matter the size. You’ll make the first block for this quilt in a few hours, then you’ll perfect the technique so by the end of the class, you’ll have multiple blocks done — perhaps enough for a table runner. You’ll know how to continue making blocks for as large a quilt as you want.
