Very pretty. I really have begun to like black in quilts. I think black makes things stand out and it really does in this quilt. Good job.

Thanks

Yes, I just added black triangles and then the black borders. Easy!

I have fabric for one but I'm in the middle of two other projects. I'm so darn slow! I made the mistake of starting my first hand applique wall hanging project and as usual am learning by trial and error...lots of error. I seem to do as much ripping out as stitching but am enjoying it just the same.
