Circle work

I'm really pleased with how my circle turned out (inspired, of course, by the circles in Denyse Schmidt's Single Girl Quilt).
I hope my swap partner likes it too!
The circle was easy enough to make, with no hiccups to speak of, but my mathematical skills failed me miserably when it can time to sash the block in more linen. I trimmed it an inch smaller than I needed it to be, and crookedly too! There was a good half inch difference in the two ends. Disgraceful! Not sure what I was thinking. All fixed now, and I hope to have it finished by the end of the day.

Wish me luck!

Oh, and PS: I've signed up to my sewing circle under my Ravelry name, LadyJo. Hopefully it turns out to be as useful a resource as Ravelry. I'm off to check it out again now. See you there?
