QNS - They also make a marker called Expo Vis-a-Vis that is a wet erase marker. It marks great on the plastic tubs and stays on until you wipe with a wet rag. I have been marking all my tubs with this marker, that way when I want to reuse them I just wash the writing off.

Thanks, JeanieG, I will need to look for that product.

Lost is found again; Triangular squares and Farmer's scraps are in separate tubs and marked. I have tubs left over and room to 'spare' for more FART trips! LOL. My part of the quilt room is in shape now and I am no longer bent out of shape!! Now to whip dh side into shape after tomorrow.

Good news; Dh took his mower in for repair without my help,and it only cost half as much as they quoted him. They mowed the hay field behind us and we have a view again and wind blowing through better!! And GardenGal, I have found a number of blocks, it filled up the box and its ready to ship when I can. Probably when I ship the MB for July.

OK for those that asked, here is the finished 2nd Pony Club Quilt (no ponies on this one), with the border that I just am not fond of. It is really cute material, but does not go with this quilt, I think it is just too dark. I have added a close up of the top with border.

Whoops, the photo ended up sideways, oh well, you get the idea!

My two cents worth says the border is 'too busy' and distracts from your wonderful blocks. Love the way you have put your blocks together, and moving on with a border...I have the border cut, but have not moved on with it like I do need too. So many things to sew, and not enough hours in the day...or I am being lazy may be.

Jeanie, I think you're right about the border being too dark. I would do a very small red border after the white and a broader blue one instead of your nice dark fabric.

GG, my village has about 30.000 inhabitants. My DS is living in a town twice as big as where I'm living.

QE, the LQS is too far away to go there by bike. I do have nice saddlebags but not for fabric I will take a picture of my new wheels Not now as it's getting dark here.

QNS, congrats on finding your lost items again! Did you find things you didn't miss? I always come across things I didn't know I had

DD, beautiful block! It goes very well with the others!

My killer kitty lost weight again. Now she's on recovery food to see if she's gaining some. She's on the edge of being underweight.
Some people shouldn't be allowed to have pets My neighbours have a dog, they're screaming to the poor dog all day........go away, come here, sit down, go away.........I think he will need psychiatric care very soon! ! !

Anael hit the 500th post!! We party in the virtual RV; bring your favorite potluck and come on in!!

Jeanie--pretty quilt. I agree with Anael that a medium blue would be a good outer border (something like the 3rd one down in your close up picture). Did you go with blue on your horsey PC quilt? If so you could also use a medium green for something different on this one.

Anael

According to my screen carrie's post is # 4997 so we still didn't hit the 5000. I'm in the RV with an impossible pie

Anael

But hey, we can do it if we want

Anael

So this one should be # 5000........LOL LOL or maybe someone else beat me to it?
