Final layout sewn together.......

I moved a few blocks around and said "good enough" and sewed the top together.  I couldn't motivate myself to choose a border.  This is where I am stuck on about 12 quilt tops right now.  Borders are fun to choose, that is when the right fabric shows up.  Sewing them on, not too exciting.  I need to make it a priority to get borders sewn onto at least 4 quilts this week.

Rain predicted for Saturday night.  What a difference in just a few days.

The reds and oranges in the middle are perfect. Good job!

This is gorgeous! and I am the same way with borders. I have a bag of tops, I think 6, that need borders. It is one of my goals this month to get 3 of them bordered and ready for quilting.

Lovely. I know what you mean about borders, I'm having trouble with a few myself. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful piece! 12 tops that need borders is a lot of decision making! I can't wait to see what you pick.

Others said the word that came to mind, but it can be repeated - stunning! I now have a pattern for one like this (Montana Cartwheel) and have it on the to-do pile.

This is one grand design Wanda. I so love your precision with those spikes. True piece of needle art.

Another gorgeous quilt. I really, really, like this one, even without borders.

Karen H said...

Love it! This is beautiful! I agree that the borders aren't the most fun. I need to choose a binding for my "Easy Street" quilt. That's not my favorite part, either.

Oh, Wanda, this is just incredibly beautiful! Another masterpiece.

Beautiful quilt! There is definitely a quilt something like this in my very near future :*) The borders are my least favorite part of quilt assembly. I have to make myself do it!
