I have this pattern and am "itching" to get it started...but alas, it probably won't happen this year...too many quilts left to do before Christmas for others. I do appreciate the heads up on the borders and to be aware of which way they are going...that tip will hopefully save me a lot of grief, if I ever get to that point. I think you've done a beautiful job with the quilt tho....IT's LOVELY!
Hugs
