Finally have all of my top finished. I really do like it but I plan on taking a break from it before I quilt it. Hand piecing is just NOT my thing! LOL!!!!! I won't say never again but I will say it will be a long, long time before I do it again. I have such repect for our grandmothers who need to hand sew every piece of clothing as well as quilts.
I thought about redoing the borders so the cream outer border matched up with the cornerstones.....also the outer border has more ripples than I like but today I put it away & will think about it tomorrow!

That is beautiful!!! I love the soft cream sashing and the minty green borders. They compliment your blocks and give it a soft, airy feeling. I can't think of enough adjectives. I love the blocks in the outer borders used as cornerstones-really adds something to the finished quilt. You really did an outstanding job--please pat yourself on the back. Love it, Dody-great work.
As for the wavy borders, if mine wave after I get them on for the third time, I'm waving back! I figure it will drape over the side of the mattress and look fine.
Wow--I love your quilt!!!

this is so exciting!!! seeing how everyone is getting their quilt together :D :D :D
I went to the park today and layed my blocks out, It looks so much better than I thought it would!
I still see two or three blocks that stand out to much, but they will probably stay.
please ignore the pink sheet! also a couple of blocks were trying to get away :roll:
