Here is the whole quilt, with the border added and binding finished.
Here is a close up of the border and binding. I love the border fabric and now it is almost all gone. I always like the binding to be just a little darker than the border so it looks finished.
Happy New Year everyone. Thanks for all of the good wishes you have thrown my way. I hope next year is prosperous in many ways for each of you, and good health to all. I don't usually make resolutions, I just start new projects.
It's lovely! Happy new Year!

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Wanda. I like your approach to NY's resolutions! I started a new project last night before midnight, but I will probably scrap it--what way is that to end the year? Good thing is that I expect the second edition to be much improved. Have a quiltastic year.
