    Kennedy, my barn buddy, and I raced thorugh chores and pasture cleaning so we could get this laid out. We took picture after picture to view to see where changes were needed. (why do we see things better in pictures?) After she left I took a "final" shot at least four times. There was always something that needed moving! :roll: :roll: BUT--I think this is IT! You'd think with a scrappy thing it'd not be so difficult!

    I included photos of the border fabric, corner blocks and back. I am still deciding on the narrow inner border.

    Yes Karla...that looks great! I like the border too. Is that a dark cornerstone? I always have a harder time laying out the scrappy ones. Wonder why that is???? I'm going back to study it some more...I'm :mrgreen: of Mark!!

    Looks great!!! I like it! I do that too, lay it out, change it around, ask anyone within yelling distance what they think, change it again. Have to get it perfect!!!

    Absolutely stunning! You must be so proud of this quilt! Your husband is going to turn flips when he gets it!
