    Moonrise, WOW! Just awesome...your border really finishes this in a wonderful way. Thanks for sharing. Not sure that I'll do the extra work, but it really is a wonderful way to complete the quilt top.

    Nice finishes. Hopefully, I will have a few minutes to at least finish the last clue this weekend. Lol!

    Nice quilt Moonrise. The extra thinking on the border is perfect.

    I've had a couple of ladies ask about the border, so I'll try to put together a quick tutorial this evening. It's really easy, now that the math is done! LOL!

    Last step (optional). Hopefully there are no typos. I'm not sufficiently caffeinated yet.

    Thank you Moonrise - that is so helpful and I will definitely save this for the future. Here are my blocks sewn together, but I am still trying to decide on the border. It may be used for a donation lap quilt and then I would only put on the narrow border to finish it off. Judy, you said it would have drama and it did add some drama to my life and my seam ripper time But I love, love, LOVE this pattern and will be using it again. Thank you so much for all your work in presenting it to us - especially when you have not been feeling well. I pray that you are better now.
