    I might actually layer and pin RT today. Recently I pulled out my stack of 6 flimsy quilts and have been working my way through finishing them. What a project! This will be the second to last one in the stack so almost done.

    I've started on my smaller geese in lighter pinks -- much happier with them. I finally decided on a border plan I liked, but unfortunately, because of the fabric wasted in the first batch of geese, I don't have enough of that fabric left, so not sure what I will do after the geese.

    I think around Halloween is when Bonnie posts colors and yardage, with the first clue coming out on Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving).

    I actually finished the quilt! I have a stack of quilts that have been recently waiting to have their photos taken so will post a picture when I have one.

    I can’t wait to see your quilted quilt. Your flimsy was lovely.

    Mine is now officially a flimsy. I did roughly half size and it finished at 72 x 72. After all the handwringing over the suggested border, with only a few minor changes, I think it works well. I added some of the deeper red geese, put the white “sky” towards the center and changed the colors a bit on the corner blocks. I have the backing and batting already, so no reason not to get going on the quilting!

    Bravo, SuzSLO, that looks lovely!

    I am progressing nicely, have my first border on and geese almost trimmed.

    Beautiful finish, Congratulations! I really like the way you did the border and your colors are so soft and pretty.
