    I haven't decided on borders yet. It depends on the finished size without borders.
    Wow Anael, you are on a roll! I can't wait to see the next section.

    Yeah Anael!! Your really flying through this quilt. Pictures, pictures, pictures. Inquiring eyes want to see. Wow, you really do keep yourself busy.

    I am working on an old UFO. My Giant Scrappy Swoon and I am also working of a R/W/B Patriotic quilt for my deployed Son-In-Law. I just need to finish up 2 more blocks and then I can start sashing it.

    I can't wait for Teen to get back. I wonder how she is doing on her GTSB's quilt. I bet she is working on her hand work while she is away. I am so craving some more pictures.

    I have to say, not all the blocks from section 7 are from the original Gypsy Wife. I got a bit bored making 3" square in a square blocks so I made a few other ones. And the 7" also is different from the original one (should have been square in a square double bordered but I didn't feel like making that one )

    Your fabric choices remind me of the artist Mary Englebreit. I love her work.

    Wow, Great fabrics. I am loving the look of this Gypsy Wife quilt. I can't wait to see the completed top.

    Thanks for taking the time to post photos. I am really enjoying your progress.

    Anael, your Gypsy Wife is coming out so pretty. I just love the "ice cream" colors you are using.
