    Default Playing with Border Fabrics

    I am starting this thread for all of us to use who want to start playing with border fabrics. Come here to post your ideas and to share photos of what you come up with.
    I've been wanting to do this for a while now, and a recent post on the board sharing some results of using them inspired me to get started.

    So get out those border fabrics and your 60* ruler (or other) and get creative! Then come here and share your creations, both successful and not so.

    Help this be a learning thread for us all!
    Hugs and smiles, Linda aka wildyard

    PS: here are my first efforts playing with some border fabric I had. I cut it into different widths to get triangles of different sizes. I still have a lot more to play with, so I'm just getting started here. Nothing is sewn as I'm still moving things around on my design wall.
    I'm thinking about seeing if I can put them all together in some way into one top.

    Here's a block I made yesterday. Really a 9-patch with a border print used in spots 2,4, 6, and 8.
