Cut Perfect Circles for a Quilt with the TrueCut 360 Circle Cutter by Paul Leger March 16, 2026 written by Paul Leger March 16, 2026 1 It’s been a while since I’ve done anything with circles, so I decided to play with the TRUECUT 360 Circle Cutter for some quilting projects. Circles can be a fantastic addition to quilts, whether for appliqué designs, patchwork, or decorative elements. I’ll demonstrate how easy and enjoyable it is to use this tool to cut perfect circles, which can really elevate your quilting designs. This cutter not only saves time but also ensures precision, making it a great asset for anyone looking to incorporate round shapes into their quilt. I can’t wait to show you the results! I purposely used the word ‘play’ in the opening paragraph because this week we’re not only ‘playing’ with the circle cutter, but also creating a quilt that is an easy game to amuse everyone.

After moving to Ottawa in 1996, I joined my first guild. I took more courses and began to buy quilting books and lots of fabrics. Quilting has become my passion. I have made over 150 more quilts since then, and have never looked back. I now share my knowledge of quilting by teaching and doing presentations, and blogging! previous post Friends of the Forest Baby Quilt YOU MAY ALSO LIKE...
