I have been busy sewing my klosjes blocks into strips and thought everything was going quite well. That is .... until I double checked and noticed there are two blocks turned the wrong way (see the bright orange stickies). Darn, but a good thing they got caught in time.
There are only 21 border blocks to make. Wow? When did that happen? I just kept making border blocks and started pinning them on my design wall. Now that was a nice surprise for me! :o)
So, this top is coming along very nicely. I have been toying with the borders. Should they have a strip of fabric between the center portion and the outside borders? Oh, decisions, decisions. I'll do a mock-up sometime soon and show you different versions and ask for your opinion.
Now, I'm off to fix those blocks and continue working on this top. Oh, it will be so nice to finally have this top finished.
Have a great day!
Oh Rose Marie, what a beauty this is even with the wrong turns. Makes me smile. Look forward to the mock-up's.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is really pretty. I love your border, too -

oh, your top will be great - you have so many spools - I love it
ReplyDeleteThat will be so pretty! Personally I would put a narrow (say - one inch, no more) border between the centre blocks and the border, but would that throw the border maths out?
ReplyDeleteOMG....that is totally stunning...love what you are doing with the border Rose Marie...
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is just gorgeous -I love!

I am totally in love with this quilt!!! Is your block for the border an original design? It is so unexpected but absolutely perfect!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a super design for your klosjes!
ReplyDeleteI love love this quilt have to say it is my fav...love the boarders you are adding as well...is this for me..LOL...
ReplyDeletedon't show me this one live or it may follow me home..you are doing fantastic...
You are good to move those blocks, I might have been tempted to leave them. I really love that border!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic klosjes. I love the border. Is it your own design?
ReplyDeleteEvery time I see your quilt, I just love the border more and more. Its perfect!
ReplyDeleteEeeek! RoseMarie, boy I have missed way too many of your posts! This quilt is just beautiful! Even with the orange stickers. Love it and can't wait to see the borders.
ReplyDeleteIt is really beautiful. I always like a narrow "stop" border after the central part, but that can throw out the sizes for the outside blocks so it can be a tricky decision. There, that was absolutely no help at all was it?
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous! I love the border, and the blocks...the whole thing!
