Description:
With every quilt she makes, Becky likes to think of the challenge that each will present to her. For Circular Momentum, she wanted an explosion of circles. So the challenge was making every circle on the quilt using needle turned hand appliqué. The quilt was originally intended for a Christmas book, but at the time of its making Becky was so over Christmas motifs that she went with a take that she calls "marginally Winter". Becky says the fun part of the quilt is the way that the circles expand into the border to take the feeling outward.
