CJs quilt top done
#1
I washed the red fabric I got at Mardens Friday -- surprisingly - it didn't run at all. I put the border on today and I hope to sandwich it on Monday.
I think there are enough red pieces in the squares to balance the red border. The wind is blowing hard this afternoon so it is really wavy
Now it will take a winter (or more) to quilt it and get it to him. He really needs to know that I'm here for him even tho I'm not nearby. He is a sort of son -- we worked together for a long time and helped me a lot when my DH died and my children lived far away.

I am going to need to study it carefully to see how I want to quilt it -- I have several ideas, but I don't think it will be SITD or shadowing
I use yardsticks and masking tape laid on the top to help me get ideas when I do these.
