I am very pleased with my finished quilt top. Blue Portugal. I introduced it here.
I hung it out on the screened porch, so the wind is blowing it a bit, and the sun was shining on the corner.
The only thing I did differently was to miter the border. The border print just seemed to want to lend itself to that.
Here is close up shot, however, I didn't do a very good job of getting the border fully in the shot, did I?
I've been posting for a week or two about my "Kaffe phase," and I thought perhaps I should revisit the terminology. Back a year or so ago, I clarified things here.
Well, next up for me is Economy Blue, another of Kaffe Fassett's patterns. However, it's crunch time for the 4-H project, so Emma has first dibs on the sewing machine.
I agree with the mitered borders! They look so much better than squaring them off. Mitering is a lost art these days Jayne.
ReplyDeleteIt's great, and the mitred borders were exactly the right thing I think.
