To hopetoquilt:
I would consider using a small 1.5 inch cut black inner border (finish 1 inch) to finish off the pattern and then I would pick up a color from the quilt for your bigger outer border
I need to get moving and take a shower so I can get into my sewing room....9:35 am here on the East Coast

I will be sewing soon (as soon as I finish surfing the board) and will be working on the same project as last month. Sadly, I only have a couple days a month that I can spend the whole day sewing, but happily, today is the day!
Anyway, I managed to get my flying geese cut to size and I am ready to assemble them into blocks. I'll check in later...

Hurray! My DH took a few minutes and installed FIREFOX. So far all the PC problems seem to have disappeared.
I will now attempt to post a few pics of what I'm working on today. Samples of a Dresden Plate. Here goes. The first one is my trial block.

Hi all. 10:15 in Florida and ready to quilt today. I would love to continue quilting a twin size quilt for my nephew but I have to work on the Quilt for Quilters swap that is due on June. I cannot post pictures but I surely love to quilt with you friends today.
Fascinating to see the hours sta,ped on each post. Love to see quilters from all over the world.

Until time to leave for church, I am working on an appliqué block. It would be wonderful if I could finish that today also. Best wishes to all of you. I hope you accomplish your goals.

Here are a few more pics of DP. These are for a wall hanging for me. I made them to practice before I have to start the baby quilt after it is approved by MTB.
I started these on Friday, choosing and cutting. Started piecing on WQD, yesterday and finished them this morning.
Enjoy. peace
