....I just made using
these circles, that I laid the other night on my studio desk...
What to do with them all???
....use them perpendicular to each other or just a little bit shifted????
Eventually, I opted for the shifted arrangement!!!
So I started by sewing horizontal strips using a tapestry needle and some matching/contrasting yarn
Pick 2 adjacent circles and pass the needle from the back of any stitch of the first disc and push the same needle in any stitch (from the front) of the second circle
Pass the needle (from the back) in the next stitch (on the left) of the first disc and pass it in the next stitch of the second circle (again from the front) (sequence to follow :
A-B-C-D)
On the back of this couple of discs, tie a double knot and cut off the tails!

| back |
 |
| front |
....and repeat this stitching for the remnants circles of the same row! Note that from the third circle on pay more attention in the selection of the stitches to use in the joining : you are making a kind of straight row!!! ok?
Another strip on the way....
After a while all the strips were done...
Next step : join the strips together!
I just used one stitch for each contact point between each circle!
And strip after strip
Some little knots on their back
A fabric made of "tons" of circles !!!!
How to use it : horizontal strips...
...or vertical strips ???.....
but this is not the only dilemma that I have.....
I'm still thinking how to use this nice piece of fabric......give me some days to figure it out !!!! ;oD
