    Oh, man, the fog is with me lately. Yesterday I sewed the borders of this beach quilt to the Calendar Quilt I am making for a wedding gift. LOL. Now I reallyyyyyyy get to play with my frogger, not that it ever goes unattended for long.
    I was thinking that the mitered corners weren't in the right places - - but then I am such a newbie yet, I wasn't sure. I especially love that center panel (the three blocks). Good job on the quilt -

    I noticed the mitered corners but I thought that 3 colors were suppose to be used and then I figured it had to be that you didn't miter the corners on the bottom left and top right. Rest of quilt is very nice. Like the fabric too.

    Gosh, maybe I'll just leave it that way. If it doesn't look that wierd to everyone else, I guess I can live with it. LOL.. I'll be thinking about that while I finish ripping off the wrong borders from the wedding quilt. LOLOL..... life is always an adventure when you are me!

    LOL, guess either I leave it or totally redo the whole thing cuz I am out of the fabric I used for the lighter side. Not more than an 2"x3" scrap left. Arghhhhhhh....... frustration!! I am going around shaking it in case there are ripe spores to fall off and grow me some more of it.
    Thinking applique now... so you know I am at the edge of my limits.
