    Thanks for the comments/recommendations everyone. Unfortunately I didn't come back here soon enough to catch my boo boo. It wasn't until after I had glue basted it all together that I saw the major error. ��. I did, however, move some of the blocks around. I am making the quilt for a young lady (daughter of BFF) and I know it will be loved and she won't notice the mistake. And I'm keeping mum about it LOL I put a 1" border in red followed by a 5" black border on it. I will quilt in black using an all over meander.

    Aw....bummer. But hey! It looks greatand she is going to LOVE it. I hope you will come back and put apost with a finished pic? I'm thinking that the borders are reallygoing to make it “pop” and pull it all together so you won't haveto worry at all about the top row. Especially because the style andcolors lend themselves to a modern feel so it is going to have thatModern Art vibe where things don't need to be balanced andsymmetrical and will really stand on it's own.


    Absolutely don't say it was an error. It's not. This is not a typical pattern where there is a certainlayout or format that has to be followed. A DP9 is about expressionand your own preference..as is much of quilting. That's what I loveabout it! There is no “wrong”, just ability andpreference...like all of art, it is an expression of the artist.


    Great job and I can't wait to see itcompleted!
