I finished the second border today. Nothing new, same as the first one I'm working on a block right now.

Closer!!!!!!

Good idea to break up the border work .... I'm thinking it is repetitive and not quite as much fun as unique patterns for the blocks?

Oh I don't mind doing the border, it's actually fun to see it coming together. I'm having a hard time finding designs for the remaining blocks!

Have to clean the living room. A blackbird flew into the house and of course KK has been chasing it. Look .......

Feathers and droppings all over the place Luckily he escaped so I don't have to remove a bloody dead bird! !

This one I did yesterday. I'm not too happy about it though.

Such prettiness!!!!!!!!
(except for the blackbird demise)

It's all coming together and continuing as a real showpiece, Anael!

As for the blackbird ... hope nothing landed on your Ode to Mom.
Looks like KK is living up to his name! And is your defender!

Finally I did one again. A hard one, not the block but the design. I couldn't make it show up so it was difficult to quilt it.

Anael ... the wait was indeed worth it!
Sometimes it takes a while to get it "just right" ... and you went beyond just, to unique. Thanks for the closeup so we could see your impeccable stitching!
