Jan, you are too kind already, but if you could I would be glad of it, you know how absorbed I get with each project, now...if I just press this key here will that work, can I reach into cyberspace and just get my hands on that spotty red tucked away at the back of Jan's shelf............I WISH :lol: :wink: :D :D :D

Thanks everyone, it's a fun project!! :D

Just love your work Izy....so bright and cute I could just stare at it for hours......:-)

Izy

Thanks Cathe, the colours are not so day glow as they appear in the picture, I took it late last night with the flash, although they are bright, I will take another picture later in the sunshine :wink:

gcathie

Izy that is luvverrrlyy! For your outer border, what about flying geese in green and blue (if you've got any blue?!) - I'm thinking that might suggest waves?

Hey K...can you think of anything easier to eminate waves...lol!! (did you see how many flying geese I did on my big sampler...put me off for life tee hee!!)

Now I cud just do applique waves in a long piece like in the centre panel....NOW that seems like a plan to me...IF I can find fabric that will do!! :wink: :lol:

k3n

I thought the wave effect was the point?! :wink:

But your appliqué idea sound good too!

BTW did you speed piece your geese before? I've done that once as a border on some cushions for my Mum and that worked pretty well - BUT they were only 18" square!

No, I foundation pieced them, but I have downloaded a couple more tutes how to do them quickly.. BUT my biggest problem is the Mathematics, I didn't plan this quilt as usual, so just made the centre panel, now it an odd size so can't balance up borders....... :roll:

Izy

Cheers Loretta and DH!! :wink: :D :D

Hey K...just had another brain wave...but you will have to wait and see, not sure if I will get much sewing done today as other things to do...so be patient :lol:
