well you mentioned some duds so I think mine is a bit of a dud. Maybe a border will add to it. Went to JA's today to get a brown for another block for a board member. all of their calicos, the ones on the wall are 50% off so I got a red pindot for my backing really cheap. Maybe after the borders are on it will pop some. Love looking at everyone's great quilts.

Cindy, I knew I would love it finished. I don't blame you for keeping it. Well, I made my corner blocks and laid out 2 different borders. One has the last strip in brown dot like what is in the corner block.The other is done with pumpkin repeated for the last strip. Please give your opinion of which looks best. I used scraps for the borders and are not neccessarily the width I will use. Please leave your honest opinion . I will only cry for 2 weeks if you hurt my feelings. Just kidding.

The most remarkable thing about each and everyone is what a strong statement they make. So different but each and everyone is so amazing! Having a little problem with mine. Can't seem to get a couple of the colors to look like they fit in, thinking I need to put the borders on and hope that pulls everything together. Think adding a third border like others have done might help. Lynnie don't give up, I bet yours is great. Show us pictures.
