Just trace around an item you have that is the right size. Trace your circle onto Templar, a template plastic that is heat proof. Cut your fabric circle 2 cm larger in diameter than your template. Carefully sew a running (gathering) stitch 1/2 cm from the outside edge of your fabric. Cneter your Templar template in the center of tha fabric, and draw up the gathering stitches to make a circle. Press thoroughly to set your shape. Carefully remove the template when cool, pin your circle in place and ta da! a perfect circle!!
