The circle of squares block take so much more background fabric then it does colored fabric so I didn't use much pink from the 2.5" strip box.
I made two blocks, a lighter pink and darker pink.
The blocks finish at 12". Here is a link to the pattern.
I am linking to a post from the Crafty Quilter. In this post she gives links to free quilt block and applique designs. We all love free patterns! I'm sure there are some wonderful patterns that would be perfect for a RSC quilt in case you are at loss for an idea.

thats a nice block......
It's a cool block Gretchen!
I printed this pattern a long time ago but have not made it yet. I will live through yours right now. It's very pretty!
This is a fun pattern. Lots of negative space, so it give each square of color room to shine. Thanks so much for sharing the link.
A nice block I think I have seen this one on other blog and liked hers too
This was one of my past projects for the RSC and I loved making these blocks... and it makes an awesome quilt!
Fun block and the pink really pops.
LOVE that block and it's SEW pretty in PINK!!
I love those blocks, too! You're right, though, it takes a lot of background fabric. Are you using whatever low volume pieces you have for the backgrounds?
I like this block! Background might be an issue for me! Neutrals are scarce in my stash! I’ll have to remedy that in 2021!
I'm trying to use up background fabrics that are large enough to make several blocks but not enough for a larger project. This quilt is going to have a variety of background fabrics.
I remember your quilt, it inspired me to start my circle of squares quilt.
I was going to do the Circle of Friends block for RSC but the background was an issue. I'm not sure I have enough large enough pieces of fabrics that would suit the backgrounds. I'm using my low volume pieces for my shoo fly blocks.
THose are really cool blocks!!!
Nice blocks
Your Circles are sweet. Nice job!
