For each row, I am taking all of my leftover pieces and putting them into a little storage box that I have for this project....with these pieces, I am hoping to incorporate the various colors of the quilt into a border, or prairie points or something....and that way the colors will all carry though - using some larger pieces for the main borders.....just an idea!

Hi Sharon,
Yeah,,,,,now we'll all be longing to see how everyone is going to finish this quilt....
With regards to vacation, I leave on May 2nd for 2 weeks in Varadero, Cuba....the white sandy beach is calling me :-)...
Perhaps I can bring some sewing but it will need to be handsewing :-)

That is so very nicely done. I have not been able to get started on the April row yet but you have really set the bar high, you and everyone else who are already finished with the April row.
