Well, I hung in there and sewed that last row together and then tackled the borders.
A Scrappy Garden is finally a top!!! Since the centre is SO busy, the borders had to be plain to give the eye a place to rest. Yes, this works very well. This is another big top. The height is 94-1/2" and the width is 102". After it is quilted, an overall loss of 4" will occur and then this will be the perfect size for my bed.

My Aussie friend,
Jennifer, brought this pattern for me using that same template.

Have a great day!
