    Well done! Looks like the quilt was BORN that way, with just that border in mind ... that is just soooo cool! <wave>

    Here you go ... I hope that my being ten days late hasn't panicked anyone ...
    The FIRST time I saw the center on this quilt, I KNEW what the lighthouse needed, and proceeded to prepare for its arrival ... and, another person's request for naval fabric brought more ideas. So, when I finally sat down ... well, you know ... I could tell you more stories about this center and the border, but you probably would just like to see it, eh? <wave>

    my FIRST thought regarding Lighthouses

    tutorial

    I was so honored to have a place to put the migrating goose border that I have meant to create for more than five years (the first time I ever saw it done!) With the help of one of my quilting friends here in my home town, I got the border done, but before I called my friend, I went searching this site because I don't think I have ever NOT found something to help me, no matter the endeavor/technique/or pattern.

    I did find a thread that had been started called Staggered Flying Geese and have linked that thread to this tutorial also, but I thought that perhaps all of you might be interested <wave>

    The thread I found

    Isn't April turning out just GRAND??????? <WAVE>
