When the Planets Don't Align

First of all....I don't know what the heck this is. haha   Maybe an interpretation of the eclipse.   it all started with strips of little pieces that i had left over from another project...why can't i just throw that stuff away?  sigh!!   then, i got new circle cutters. and off i went.

The black is felt. Maybe it's just a Halloween wall hanging. who knows. is 42 x 50"

I made squares of the little pieces and cut them into circles....and encircled those with a black felt circle, stitched down with variegated thread.

There wasn't a lot of felt, so i ran out of large black circles.

So, i used the small circles that were cut from the middles.

SID around blocks, X (corners only) over block, stitched around circles, and put a curl in the middle.

Back is a flannel...simply picked because of the colors.

It will go to market....perhaps someone there will like weird things. .... perhaps it will become a dog blanket.  haha   I'm ok with that either way.
