    I'm making a softball T-shirt quilt for my DIL. I was a little afraid of it to begin with, but it went together very well. Here is a picture of the quilt top and the tiny multi-striped outer border. When I bind it, it will only be 1/4", but will hopefully add an extra accent to the quilt. Just one of those weird ideas I get every now and then!

    Very nice quilt! The multi-striped border really sets it off!
