Busy, busy making the border blocks for the Malibu Sunset quilt. These are the twelve newest ones:

These are all eighteen that have been completed. I have to make 52 blocks all together.

Without the border the quilt will be about 62” X 66”. With the borders, it will be about 71” X 75”. Not all that big, but it sure seems to take up an inordinate amount of space on my design wall. It will feel so good when it finally comes down.
I feel very fortunate to be able to use up some directional prints that have been stored untouched in my stash for many years.
Those border prints will add a lot visually and in size. I really like the blue prints you used.
ReplyDeleteThat will be so pretty. Anxious to see them on the quilt-bet you are too:)
ReplyDeleteLooking good...always good to use old stuff from stash
ReplyDeleteWhen I am able to use something that has been sitting in my stash for years, it is sort of like releasing a little sense of guilt about buying it in the first place. Hmmmmm....I never really paid any attention to it until right now: Quilt and guilt rhyme. Interesting.
