I've actually gone back to my number 4 in the series, I was never happy with the result.
Circle series 4 |
I decided that the reason was that the background triangle shapes were too large and so there was no difference in scale between the background and the circles.
I made another with a background of smaller shapes. It took a lot longer to put together.
No 6 background |
Circle series no. 6 |
Here is a photo of all six in the series. How funny - I'm starting to like the first one again!

I also made another little paper collage out of my gelli printed papers.

The bad news here in Melbourne is that we are experiencing a second wave of the virus and last week we went into 6 weeks of lockdown again.
This time I want to get more sewing done and not so much of the playing around and experimenting.
Bye for now,
Linda

I'm a big fan of b/w so, of course, those you showed are my favorites! Love the blue with the b/w!!! Nicely done.
Thanks Robbie, blue was always my favourite colour growing up, I wonder why I don't use it more now.
They all look lovely Linda, it would be hard to choose one over the other.
Thanks Jude, I think I might finish that series now.
Such an interesting series! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Mary, I think I might try some pieced circles next
Interesting to read your thoughts about the reasons for disliking #4 - I'm glad you shared. I knew when I looked at it that there was something not quite 'on' but couldn't figure out what it was. Now that I see your second version I get it.
So sorry you're in lockdown again - be safe, be well!
Thanks Magpie Mumblings, making these little quilts is a good way to experiment and try things out, so hopefully I don't make the mistakes in larger work!
