    Love it, great colour combination. It sounds like a little bit of heaven where you live.

    That was an intuitive suggestion from your teacher. It gives you concrete evidence of the progress you made as a quilter. Great quilt and I like the idea of the flying geese cornerstones.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]608089[/ATTACH]This is a Jinny Beyer border fabric. It's almost enough to do the job if I sew it together blunt ended, not mitered. I have a 2 1/2 inch strip already on.

    That fabric is perfect for your forest quilt. It will be even more beautiful.

    Awesome job. I know you must feel a huge sense of accomplishment finishing off this old but adorable top. I love it. Great job.
