Trying Traditional Quilting

 I have been trying to do more traditional designs for quilting this simple quilt, Bosna #4.
I used a big round platter for the largest circle, and a sliver of dried soap to mark the line. Then a dinner plate, salad plate and small glass for the center.

  3. I had to resort to traditional methods on a quilt I made for my sister. Had a large feather circle in the middle also. I had no marking anything (it was white) so I read up and decided to use cinnamon as a stamping powder. Worked pretty good and even after washing still smelled of cinnamon.
