    I put one side of the border on just to see what it looked like. I was really pleased, up until the very last section when I ironed my little finger!

    Still standing on the coffee table.

    Don't tell hubby, I stood on the coffee table to get this shot!

    Oh, ouch Blue - do you have an aloe vera plant? That's what I put on burns, works a treat! Won't tell hubby you stood on the COFFEE TABLE!!!!! Naughty girl! :wink:

    PS Should have said - loving that border! And the yellow is JUST enough to set off the blue and white without over powering it! :D

    Man it hurts! I kept thinking "i'll just finish this bit then I'll put it under the cold tap".

    Of course, by the time I'd pressed the seam it was far too late. *sigh*

    I have some aloe on it now.

    I'm far too old to fall for that! lol

    Unless it's a Vodka Kiss ... that would make it feel better.

    I'm pleased with the border... it's a bit much but not a lot too much, I like it. :-)
