I got this far on my borders working as leader/enders and then decided to just finish it already!
I couldn’t find the background fabric I used in the blocks, so I used the same print in this pink colorway for the outside borders. Now I’m certain the brown stuff will show up.
I carefully quilted it all in a one inch grid. But it felt wrong. So instead of taking it off the frame, I took a nap.
When I got up, I knew I’d never be happy if I didn’t double upon the quilting. You can see a bit of the difference in this photo.
It would have taken less time if I’d done this in the first place, but here I am.
I have a gazillion charm packs. The local Project Linus is in need of baby quilts so that was a great excuse to rip one open.
I cut the charms into quarters and also cut 1 1/2” strips of white and navy blue.
After stitching the strips together, I put them crosswise on my strip cutting die to subcut them. I should have taken a picture of this, but I forgot. 🤷🏻♀️
I also cut 1 1/2 inch squares. Now I’m ready to sit and piece.
