    Default My 4PP top finished.. Sunrise Awakening

    This is the final version of my 4PP quilt top, all ready for layering and quilting. I appreciate all the opinions and suggestions that were offered but as so many said, in the end I had to go with my heart/gut.
    I tried a wide border of the original fabric and it is such a busy fabric, it really overwhelmed the design of the 4PP; I didn't like it at all. So back to the borders to pick up the turquoise and purpley-pink. I decided to go with a flange of the original fabric next then the final black outer border.
    I am very happy with the way it came out. Now I have 2 more to finish before I can layer and quilt this one.
    LOL I don't know what happened, I have always been a one at a time project person before.

    That is just absolutely gorgeous. What size did you cut your blocks and did you take a picture of the original fabric? Would love to see that to figure out what pattern gives such distinction to the blocks.
