    Happy Mother's Day to all of you. I got my blocks yesterday and I'm so pleased. This looks like a QOV happening!

    Hey everyone!! Just a small plug for the red, white and blue layer cake swap - a great way to get unique fabric to finish off parts of your quilt maybe? I might make a bricks border and a scrappy binding...who knows. Or use some of my D4P blocks for the quilt, and add to other D4P with this fabric for a runner.

    Anyway, to all who liked my fireworks fabric, it's in my package. And a gorgeous flower print, too.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]487150[/ATTACH] need you help ladies/gentlemen, This is what I've done so far with my blocks. it's about 72x53. I really don't want to make it bigger than 80x? Question is, would a small border on 2sides and larger on one side look bad? Any suggestions.

    What a fabulous setting! How about a small 1 inch inner border on all sides then maybe a 3 inch border ((dark blue!)) all around. Should make it approx. 61 x 80. Just a thought.

    Great job!

    I was thinking of something similar to that Jane, I fell it would look off it it wasn't a little bit wider. I'll audition that and a few others.

    Here is the quilt I ended up making from the swap blocks. I think it came out great!
