WIP - Paw Print Applique

I found a nice easy pattern to make a paw print. I probably could've made up something myself but I was feeling a tad lazy.
Here's the link to the pattern I found http://www.mooglyblog.com/paw-print-applique/. It called for a magic circle loop. I'd never really done one before but the tutorial had a link to a video that showed how easy it was to make.
