Teen, have you already looked at the Happy Birds pattern? I have just now and I'm confused. About the hexagon border she states to cut templates to exact size. Is that the template pattern without the seam allowance as I suppose the inner line on the template will be the exact size of the hexagon. Clear as mud? I hope you understand what I mean.
If so that would mean we (I) have to cut 64 appliqué paper hexies the size of the inner template and 64 fabric hexies about 1/8 " larger. Or would 1/8" seam allowance not be enough?

Anael, your pineapple blocks look scrumptious! And, your top is almost completed. I can't wait to see it in all it's glory.
Teen, your Santa's are so darling. I am having a hard time sticking with a favorite. This is going to be a darling quilt. And, your applique is just gorgeous!

Thanks petthefabric and Judith!
The top is finished, I need a place to take a photo. Normally I would hang it outside but it's raining all day and won't stop any time soon so either I have to go upstairs and put it on the floor or wait till tomorrow.

Ladies, here's Long Time Gone. I decided on two borderstrips instead of three.
