Big news: I was recently at Craftsy! Here's a sample from that class (which I can't wait to tell you about!!) And a little gee-whiz snapshot of a technique I used to get those nice open circles.
I took the cap from my spray baste and pressed it on the fabric while twisting, marking a perfect circle so easily! For small things I usually prefer impression marking (like with a Hera marker) to markings that I have to remove, and this seemed like something I should share with you all. Happy stitching!

So simple- yet so elegant a solution.
Ingenious! I wish I had thought of this when I was doing some hand quilting of circles recently! Now I just need to remember it for next time!
I love the Hera marker too. Great tip for circles -thank you. Look forward to seeing what your new class is all about :)
Pretty clever, quick, and easy! And I love the sample!
Clever move that I can use today! Thanks for your inspiration!
You are brilliant to think of such a clever & simple way to mark circles! Can't wait to see your next Craftsy class - love them!!
Thanks for a great tip! I know I am not the only one who had a Homer Simpson moment when I read it. So glad to hear that you will have a new class available on Craftsy. I've taken all your classes and they have helped me tremendously. Yay!
