Just finished this and couldn't wait to show you all, I am so pleased with it, I do make a rod for my own back by just winging it, not following any pattern - just working out what to do next when I get there...well last night I put all four borders on,cleared a big space in the little sitting room downstairs - spread it all out (it's in two pieces diagonally, as I will quilt it by machine and it would be too big as a whole).

Well.......OMG DUHHHHH :shock: :cry: !!

I completely forgot that the join isn't dead centre but off set soooooo, the border from one side actually bridges over the other, my problem??? I had cut all the excess off thinking as I did so :roll: why is this border soooo long :?

Well today I did some rip rip rippping, and more cut cut cutting, then sew sew sewing AGAIN and FINALLY I get to show you guys and gals what all the fuss was about :lol:

Next process....how the heck am I gonna quilt it??????? suggestions please :D

It certainly is Katrine, just hope my son can cope with the magenta pink backing, I bought extra fabric to make a dust frill and pillows, really girly lol!!

Thanks Krazy & Shelly :D
