I wish I had enough left to make more 9P's, but I don't. I hope I have enough to make an interesting border of 1/2 square triangles and/or rectangles separated from the quilt with a small dark border. Still "thinking" about it, and haven't put anything on the board yet. Will be interesting to see what will look right.
