    Thanks everyone. I was thinking of doing a vine with leaves and flowers all around the basket and then depending on the size of that surround that with the rest of the blocks. What do you think for the last border? Maybe a scalloped edge. This is my first Baltimore Albumn and I'm so glad that my partner likes it so far.
    Just to let everyone know my DH got the ok to eat regular food. Thank you God for helping me get thru this trying time in my life. And another thanks for all the prayers from evryone. IT WORKED!!!!!

    islandwiz1hmygoodness! What a gorgeous quilt you are making! Amazing!
    I really love blocks on point! Scallops would be pretty too!
    I may need to rethink what pattern to make!

    I have started the quilting on my quilt for Vanogay... and after a couple of attempts at quilting the pattern on my machine, I decided to hand quilt it so she will have to wait just a little bit longer but it does look nice so far.

    A handquilted quilt, who would not wait for that? Sounds beautiful Lynnie25.

    A little spoiler for Mindless (Chris) my awesome partner in this swap. I took the pic with my cell so it's not great but you get the general idea. When done, it will be very colorful!

    Love it Sibi. She is going to enjoy it I am sure. Wish I still looked so good. Is that what you do with those empty spools of thread?
