Circles in Squares

I did this simple square with the solid colors. So in the end I had like 6 different coordinated squares to mail out. It was fun and simple.. Then to get to the 8" I added a border with the Shaded Browns. I hope you like them.

I pulled it from the Bernat Tone on Tone Home Bonus Book.
