I want to finish my first quilt. I am almost finished with the top. Picked a rather time consuming border and spending more time piecing that than I did the top but I am very happy with it.
It will be done soon (top) then I need to muster some bravery to quilt it myself.

This is called continuous stairs and is so easy.
Cut 2" strips of light color. ( I used white)
Cut 3" strips of dark color. (black)
Cut strips in 4 1/2 squares and make a four patch block placing the light colors like a stair.
Top left white strip on the north.
Top right white on the west.
Bottom left white on the west.
Bottom right white on the north.
Obviously sewn strips of blacks then prints then sew all strips togerther.
The border is seminole patchwork.
