    Thanks to everyone for the admiration. It feels good to get it done and use up several pieces of fabric. I have a whole pile of Jinny Beyer borders in my stash. I thought this one was just perfect, except there might not be quite enough. I'm pretty sure I took that class prior to 2000. Where did the time go???

    Could you piece the border by adding in a plain block on the ends or even in the middle of the borders?

    That's a good idea.

    Wow! It’s amazing how dramatic one block can be. Your work is beautiful!

    Love the scrappy trees in your quilt. I think the border print will set it off perfectly!

    Beautiful. It reminds me of the forests in Wisconsin.

    This is really sweet. It must feel great to be able to reach a finish for something that has been "aging to perfection" for 12 years!
