ube quilting, those are beautiful, but I'm new to this and they don't look easy.
gale, I have piano keys going on a Jewel Box. Those will be mitered, but I can see how to do that with the keys.
Holtice, looking at my picture, I think I can extend the braid to the ends if I extend the narrow dark first sashing, too. Then I'll need another band of the dark across the end before the last border goes on so that all the braid is enclosed. The last border is a peachy batik and I don't want it touching the braid in one spot and not another. This may be the best so the big star stays featured.
