I love it Terri! Thank You so much!! You did a great job framing the center!!! I love the way the black and white fabric mimics the purse as well. Just beautiful!

Oooo I can't wait for this next round. Will hopefully get Teacups center off to you Friday or Saturday.

Okay, I'm having a panic attack...

Possibly because I've consumed more turkey in the last two days than I should (@ chosen family last night & at our home today), I'm having a total memory lapse.

When I was getting this ready to pack for tomorrow's mail (I do at least have that part right?) I suddenly wondered: Does this round FINISH at 3", or is it to be 3" before sewn on? So should it have been the 3.5 I started with, or should it have been 3", now at 2.75", which would make it 2.5 when the next round is put on.

Jeez, I hate ripping out. Hope I don't have to!

Should be 3" finsihed size, which means the border you sew on should measure 3.5" before you sew it on.

Phew, thank you. I don't know what made me all of a sudden think it was wrong. Probably because it's my first time out & I want to do a good job!

Thanks again, Mamabird.

Finished size when you send it out should be 3 1/4 inches.
Don't worry....I was having the same attack. KNEW what I had as right, but my brain for some reason was doubting me.
All borders should be whatever the size is PLUS 1/4 in.
Meaning when you send it out
Border one = 3 1/4
Border two = 5 1/4
and so on.
So, when the NEXT border goes on, the border that was previously put on will then measure 3 inches or 5 inches etc....
Are you more confused now???

Yeah, it's all clear now. :D

I was just doubting what I knew. I knew what I knew, but thought what I knew might be wrong...

What can I say, it's been a lovely long weekend, but very busy. I'm tired!

Thanks for the help!
