OK, I got the reply from Terri:

You need to check with quiltwoman IF she wants the quilt on point. If she does, then you're good to go. I don't know how much overlap you would need to add - that darn math for those large triangles.

If the quilt goes on point, then the 3" border simply goes away. The next person in the lineup would do the 5" border.

As Terri asked: Clear as mud?

To add to the update:

Craftymainemom now has - quiltwoman's center and Pam1966's center plus first border.

I am going to take a while to do quilt woman's center and will most likely not send the two things I have out at the same time. My brain can only do one at a time.

Good thinking, because the round with the first border isn't due to be shipped out til the 1st of November. At the rate that everyone is cranking out their rows, we may all be ahead of the game.

Now we need to find out when Kathy gets ligia's center.

I got your center Martina. I don't know exactly what day it was because we didn't come home from the hospital until Saturday. Sorry I didn't post sooner; things have been a little hectic around here. My dh is doing better but it will be a while until he's fully recovered. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.

I'm already playing with what I'm going to do with it! It's soooo pretty!

No worries! All that matters at the moment is DH's health and recovery. The RR can take a backseat for as long as it needs.

I found the perfect fabrics to add to Kathy's center and it was hiding in my stash. Now for the math......

Ligia your center arrived safe and sound!!! I have already been fabric shopping and today finished the borders. Tomorrow they will be sewn on and it will be ready to fly!!! By the way for all of you, Ligia's center is gorgeous, it is beautiful, bright, vibrant and will really give us all an opportunity to do the wild and crazy borders!! I'll post a photo when I'm done with the first round.

Checking in on you ladies.
Seems everything is in order and going smoothly so far?
Please, PLEASE, PLEASE...take your time on the borders. The first border may ONLY be a small one, but you never know, you might decide AFTER you put the border on that you have another idea.
PLEASE DO NOT SEND EARLY UNLESS IT IS GOING OVERSEAS!!! WE DO NOT WANT ANYONE TO GET BACKED UP BY SOMEONE SENDING AND SENDING BECAUSE THEY ARE DONE. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN! IT'S NOT A CONTEST TO SEE WHO CAN BE DONE THE QUICKEST!!
