Once I've made my center choice, then I have to remove the vellum from the back of each block before proceeding. I've found that if I spray the vellum with water and let it sit for a minute or two, it softens up and is much easier to remove.
Now it's easy to sew the centers to the blocks using invisible thread (I use Madera) and a blanket stitch.
I'm having fun, can you tell?

I love, love, love how you are making use of the Kaffe fabrics. It is so fun to see the way they look together with each other. Rule of thumb: never throw away a Kaffe scrap. Have fun!! :-)
I have a bunch of dotted fabrics. This looks like the perfect use for them. I may need to make a version for myself to use them. Thanks for the idea ... now if you also have some clues for me to find more time...

This quilt is stunning, Terri -- I can't remember if you designed the pattern or if it's available for purchase. Please refresh my memory. And continue having fun -- the results are fantastic.

The pattern is "Completely Dotty" and it's a Piece O' Cake pattern. You can find it on their website. I linked to it in a previous post about this fun quilt.
