By the way, no rush we have ages yet. Yours was an easy one for me to get an idea for, some stump me completely, still have no idea what to do for the last round of the IRR that I have, I am sure it will come to me but its not an easy one.

Try to do a border that leaves something open for the next person...like...don't put something around it that looks like another frame...it will keep closing up the center..and it should be open to growing...make sense?

No...I think that will be good around that winter panel.
I meant...you know...in general...try to make sure that your borders lend themselves to another addition...that is until you are putting on the final border.
I'm saying that only because last year I got a quilt that someone had added to..theirs was the next to the last border. It was sooo great and sooo strong that I had a terrible time trying to add something past it to finish out the quilt. Just a little tip to keep in mind...no rules here...you know me better than that!! :roll: :lol: :lol:
Ninnie, you go girl, your idea sounds great. :D

Go for it! I was going to put a border around it before sending it off but then it would have been over the 24" limit. So I decided just to go with it. I'm sure whatever you decide will be great!

Thanks Guys!! I sat here last night and couldn't believe how many colors there are in this panel, and so many possibilities! :D :D
And If I had the last round , I see a picket fence or somewhere down the line. :lol: :lol: Guess I had better just worry about my first round though :oops: :oops:
