Kate is hosting 15 Minutes to Stitch again this year. The plan is to try to stitch for at least 15 minutes every day. I am happy to do this again this year.
As usual, I had a strong start to this challenge. I spent the week with circles. I made a whole bunch of yo-yos, and now have 201 of them. I don't know about these types of quilts, but I would imagine they would need special care to keep them in shape. I think yo-yos will look best on a flat surface and a bed in the guest bedroom will probably be the best place to put it where it has a chance of staying clean, so I have a bunch more of them to make.
I realized that the size of my Quilty Circles 365 quilt has not grown in a long time, although I have made some blocks. I decided to make more circles so that I can sew some more rows together to add to the rows that have already been made.

A nice simple circle block to start a new batch.

This one makes me think of The Little Mermaid Disney movie.
2020: Week 1 of 15 Minutes to Stitch
I spent this week making circle blocks and yo-yos. To make the weeks end on a Sunday, I am recording 5 days for this week.15 minute days/week = 5/5 days
15 minute days/2019 = 5/5 days
Success rate = 100%

I need to get back to those circles, too. Love your variations. The last one reminds me of Sesame Street.
I've seen yo-yo quilts used as table toppers and table cloths too. They look really cute that way. Lots of good circles to add to the rest. This is going to be a fascinating quilt.
Yay! 100% is a strong start for all of us!
I like your quilty cicrcles and their stories.
I can't wait to see more progress of your your quilt and the circles showcased here are great. Yes, the last circle does remind one of The Little Mermaid.
I love that last circle block, very fun! Congrats on getting a strong start to your stitching year. Thank you for linking up with the 15 minutes to stitch this week.
I don’t know if I can do a year but I think I’ll try to keep track of 15 minutes is stitching for at least a month. I’m going to mark a check on my calendar and see if I can do thirty days running. I’ll let you know!
