I put one side of the border on just to see what it looked like. I was really pleased, up until the very last section when I ironed my little finger!

Still standing on the coffee table.

Oh, ouch Blue - do you have an aloe vera plant? That's what I put on burns, works a treat! Won't tell hubby you stood on the COFFEE TABLE!!!!! Naughty girl! :wink:

PS Should have said - loving that border! And the yellow is JUST enough to set off the blue and white without over powering it! :D

Man it hurts! I kept thinking "i'll just finish this bit then I'll put it under the cold tap".

Of course, by the time I'd pressed the seam it was far too late. *sigh*

I have some aloe on it now.

Get someone to 'give a kiss on it' - always works for my kids! LOL

I'm far too old to fall for that! lol

Unless it's a Vodka Kiss ... that would make it feel better.

I'm pleased with the border... it's a bit much but not a lot too much, I like it. :-)
