Default First border done... finally

I've been ruminating on this one for a long while and finally decided on a little more simple design for the border. Don't really know what I'm going to do with it yet and flying by the seat of my pants. I don't think that I will do the little hearts around the outside but I will put the larger hearts in the corners and left an end of the vine free to go underneath them.

What a cool border. I would have never thought of it but I like it. Great job.

I had to come up with something. Those end little blocks just looked like they were hanging out there alone and something was missing. :-)

The block pattern is from the May 2010 issue of American Quilter magazine, I added the hearts and border. The small squares are 1 3/4" finished size if that tells you what all of the other piece sizes are.

Pam, I just love to see your incredible piecing! Can you please share what fabric you use for your white backgrounds?

Great patterns and fabrics, too!

Very pretty. Looks like a lot of work, but well worth it.
