Looks beautiful!!! Sorry about your finger! I have burnt mine grabbing the Iron as it was falling on the dog's head that walked into the cord. Also have gotten steam burns plenty of times too!!

The finger is much better this morning, I was worried it would get the tight feeling and not want to bend, but it's perfectly usable. *whew*

I keep repeating myself, I'm REALLY pleased with how this is coming together. It's the straightest quilt I've ever done, it's sitting really flat and just going together beautifully. I put the pattern into EQ, and have been cutting the borders exactly at what the print out says, and they fit! I was out by less than 1/8th on one side, and the other sides were perfect.

It's a fluke, of course! LOL

WoW Stunning Beautiful :D Those are one of my favorite color combo's :D :D :D

Note***Vodka kiss AFTER you stand on coffee table to take pictures**** :lol: :wink: :lol:

I would be repeating myself too if I could make such a beautiful quilt :D Isn't EQ fun and helpful???? :D It is not a fluke......it is pure talent!

Blue Chicken--I like the setting and colors you chose for your star block exchange blocks!! The yellow is really pretty with it and the border is wonderful with it.

Of course, by the time I'd pressed the seam it was far too late. *sigh*

I have some aloe on it now.
Next time put an ice cube on it right away. Usually takes away the burn N the pain.

The border pulls the blues and yellow together very nicely! It's looking beautiful!
