Right now my little quilt with sashing measures 22". I have 16 PP from focus fabric and plenty of squares from red, yellow, and green to use for PP fillers. Will be playing around with it to see what looks best. My borders will be black. I'll probably just birth it, so no binding.

Judy, I love the prairie point border and the beautiful pattern. Now, all I have to do is get going on it -- as soon as I finish that graduation quilt that is giving me tons of trouble! Never fails when I have a deadline.

Thanks again for a great ride.

OK, I finished my top. I used my 9" blocks and resized the PP to 3" squares- which makes them show at 1 1/2 " tall. I used them on one 5" border. I'm unable to get a pix of the whole thing yet, but here are a couple scans of one corner and part of one side. Finished size will be 31". (I just got a new phone and am still learning to get the pix from my phone to my computer. Hopefully I will have time to figure it out in the next few days.) The colors show brighter here. The yellow is actually lemon yellow... not school bus yellow. LOL

Okay, having a senior moment here. I thought I posted that I love the finish and the prairie points. That I love your topper in grays, Judy, and thanks for another great ride....but I can't find my post. Hmmm, it's been a long day. So, twelve hours later, I still love the quilt reveal and I can also say that I love yours as well, Just Jan! Beautiful and I look forward to seeing more of it!

Maybe I will be able to work on mine today. 8: 30 last night we were heading to emergency vet. Shadow had an eye we were not happy with. He had an abscess. Poor puppy . They lanced it, I just gave him a pain pill Soft food and anti biotics for a week. Hope it all works. He just had 4 teeth pull a week age.
