..Made 12 Circus Horses blocks. they are on eBay.  It is the center of a Bonnie Hunter block. These are already 18"..if I had finished the block it would have been 24" ..  too large. All the horses are different.  I only had a pic, not the pattern. Her pieces were probably much smaller. My horse square was 6.5". Bonnie's was probably 2" or smaller.

..And I started one of these circles on squares. My first intention was to hand sew the circles down, with batting inside. I quickly gave up that idea and fused the circle down and stitched around with applique stitch. I'll make 80 or more. The squares are blacks, whites and greys. The circles are all wild.

That's all I got. 

I decided September would be different. I will have no 'formal' challenges. I'll just work on whatever I like. I have plenty to choose. from. haha
